Shop Manuals

[Greekman]

I just purchased another Corvette after being away from the cars for twenty years! After driving my new 1979 Corvette (new to me anyways) home from the sellers house, I remember how I love driving those rockets.

My question: I'll will need to get some service manuals and assembly shop manuals to keep the car in the fine shape it deserves. Where is the best place to buy and order these books? I enjoy doing most the work on my Corvettes and other cars myself.

Dpends on whether you want used or new. I bought most of mine used on Ebay.

Welcome To The Corvette Action Center Greekman!

First off, have you looked here in our Portal?

You could also try Lloyd's, or Advanced Gearhead, they offer CD-ROM style manuals, or you might try American Auto (in Europe) or CarleySoftware.com where you might find some used manuals.

Then there is Greg's Automotive, there's Autopedia, and this one that I'm not sure of the source although it appears to be genuine GM stuff: service manuals...

Then of course there's eBay Automanuals.

That should give you a good start, but start with our Portal first.

Get a good set of GM service manuals from HELMS online at www.helminc.com

Thanks guys. That should be a start on the info you provided.

I also remember from the past Corvette Swap Meets is also another good source for parts and manuals.

I don't really care if the manuals are new or old just want them in a condition that I could use.


PS: Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome. This appears to be a great site and source for Corvette Owners.
