"How to" Manuals for a 62 'Vette

[Toy4Hal]

Does anyone know of any "how to" manuals for a 62 'Vette? I have the service manual, and the assembly manual, and the "Complete Restoration and Technical Guide for 53 through 62". But none of this material is a "how to". For example, if I were to remove the drive shaft, what are the steps to doing so?

Years ago, "Motors" had some pretty good books. Chilton does not seem to go back to 62.

Ideas any one? Oh, and if you do, and it's available on CD, even better for a techy like me! :eek

Thanks in advance.

Boy, do I feel stupid! After posting the message, I decided to drill deaper into the books I already have. Well, what I need to do IS in the book!

:bang :bash :duh

Oh well.

Thanks all!

Sam, from what I hear, Chilton's is the answer for your car. They appear to have started publishing with the C2 series. For my 62, I found a bunch of "how to" in the service manual. I'm not sure of the exact name, but here is a link to one for sale on eBay:

If the link does not work, go to ebay and key in 2443271712 as the item number.

Thanks,
I have the Chiltons book. While informative, it is not really a how to guide.

thanks!

Sam, do you have the GM factory Chassis Service Manual and Chassis Overhaul Manual for '66? Those two have it all for "how-to".

 

[Sams '66]

No ....I do not, that is what I need.

Best place to get??

thanks

NCRS on-line store (www.ncrs.org) or any of the Corvette resto parts houses.

I think I saw one in one of the eBay stores. Not eBay per se, but one of their stores.

(a pause while I do a search)........:s

In fact, here it is:

Hope that helps.
