Is there any place online, linked to this website or not that has a 1972 Oldsmobile Chassis service manual? I'm particularly looking for one on a Cutlass/442. I like to make copies of the pages for when I do a job, as to not ruin the book. My copier doesn't seem to like the book and they come out blurry. I tried to do a search, but the search feature does not work for me, I don't know why.

 

They are on ebay all the time. Check for price because it will vary. You are better off with the original rather than a repro.

 

Yeah, buy a beat-up book for the workshop.

I just bought a pretty nice '73 manual on eBay for $8.

The new Wildaboutcarsonline site has the service manuals from '64-'71 that you can copy pages out of for free, maybe somebody will submit the '72 version soon?
The site is invaluable for manual and literature downloads, lots of other cool stuff too, best thing since sliced bread, and ClassicOldsmobile.com of course.
You can buy the manuals on CD or hard copy, try Faxons auto literature or evilbay. The Wildaboutcars site has a place to purchase them on CD listed on the page if you click on the '71 and maybe the other manuals available for download there, first link below.

Yes, the '72 and much more is coming.

Right, invaluable it is!
So that means it is worth it to pony up with a membership and support the effort by joining the Oldsmobile Performance Club, right?

 

Oh what a shameless plug....

 

Oh my! And I thought that was quite subtle.....

 

I just checked back, and the rest of the 72 Manual was there! 9-15 have been updated. Fantastic. Thanks Guys!

 

You are quite welcome. Keep checking in, as we continue to grow!

 

Great sight, just joined.
