Factory Assembly Manual '70 Cutlass

Okay I didn't follow the recomendations on this site and bought a reproduction Factory Assembly Manual. Now I see why this was a waste of money.

Can someone recommend a source for a good Factory Assembly Manual for my '70 Cutlass Supreme Convertible?

Are there any digital versions that are "searchable"?

I do have an original Chassis Service Manual. Are there any of these available in a digital format?

thanks,

Pat

Check on Ebay, or swap meets.

The Product Information Manual is a compendium of hand-drawn engineering drawings from the 1960s. They do not exist in digital form. They may have been scanned into a PDF, but that is just a PDF document of images, not searchable data. Keep in mind that these documents are half a century old and database technology didn't exist then. Paul's hard copies are far and away the best versions out there.

X2 on Joe's comments. I have one of Paul's 70 Assembly Manuals and it is far and away the best one available!

thanks to everyone for the info.

Hello Hariy Olds.

What is the cost for your manual for a 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass?

The one I bought (photo attached} is difficult to use, some diagrams are missing parts of the page, no table of content or index and is missing pages/diagrams/layouts and tables.

Can you provide me with some info on how your manual is configured?

Does it have a table of contents and/or index?

thanks,

Pat
