You should be able to find what you need on ebay. There are three different publications involved. This is a link for two of them.

Haynes, Chiltons, and Motors manuals are poor substitutes for the factory Chassis Service Manual and Fisher Body Manual. The third document noted above is the assembly manual and you are unlikely to find one of those for a full size. The assembly manuals for the A-body cars have been reproduced, but the full size cars are much less popular.

Detroit Iron

This company sells electronic versions. Very easy to use. I think Fusick may carry a paper version. http://www.detroitironis.com/

that's the problem for me.
I live in the Netherlands (small country between GBritain Belgium and germany)
If i want to order this manual i pay 40 bucks as shipping cost.
That's not a problem if i knew it was the richt manual i need from a person i can thrust.

That's way my question, if someone had it in digital (pdf like) or a manual that is easy to buy and resenly good.

I am reasonable technical, but it take's lesser time to assemble the car with a manual

espacialy now i take all the minor stuff appart like the little things off the electric window

Gotcha

Way up North.

I drove the road from Maastricht to Einghoven to Nimdhoven to Arnhem one day to cover the land of Operation Market Garden during WWII.

Get the CD version that bcg88 provided the link to and then print out what you need as you put your car together

Homework

You can get the CD ROM from Detroit Iron from Rockauto for $28.79US. They are going to nail you for $37 to ship it. However, the manual directly from Detroit Iron is listed at $55 plus shipping. I have one of the older CDs and I like being able to print stuff out. The CD includes the following manuals:

DETROIT IRON Part # 1969Oldsmobile {CD-ROM. All 1969 Oldsmobile cars}
Chassis Service / Fisher Body / 1946 thru 1975 Parts

The newer manuals on CD are in PDF and now allow search. For those of us with a paper manual that can be a godsend as the index on paper is limited.

I would say it is a small investment in a big project.
