I'm trying to find an original manual, photocopies or a good high resolution quality scan for the first CAT (short wheelbase).

More importantly, I need the back few pages with part numbers/bag numbers. I'm missing some pieces of my SWB puzzle, and having part numbers will help in my searches. If anyone has the original SWB manual, or even the XL manual in PDF or readable resolution scans, I would be greatly indebted.

Thanks, I have those, but I was hoping for something of a higher resolution than 72dpi so that I could print them in a readable format. Some of the smaller words and numbers in the parts listings are unreadable.

best hope is someone with original manuals to scan them in high res

Doug, you want a printed copy? I have a couple, not sure if I have an extra, but I can look. All my manuals are next to my computer station.

Printed or a really good scan is fine with me. Anything that I can see part numbers on and decent details of photos. A good quality photocopy would be good, too. If you can't scan an original, I could scan it all at high res and return it, too.

I tossed my scanner during the move, it was hit and miss with working anyway.

I can send you mine, just let me know if anything else doesn't end up working out. One question, is it going to take a couple months to get them back? HINT! HINT! Wink! Wink!

Sorry if the link doesn't work. But here is the id # for some old manuals:150232655491

I received my SWB CAT some days ago and it came with a complete manual, exploded view and tons of other leaflets. If you need anything Doug, just let me know!

I TOLD you I paint slow! I don't take paint jobs ever unless they agree to my criteria... 1) I paint what I want, 2) I charge what I want and 3) I paint when I want. Otherwise, they get the bodies back with a fresh and clean CLEAR paint job. Works really well that way, because I hate being nagged.

I'll be painting a bit more after the Trans Am Nationals on April 12th.



As for the manuals, that's an interesting auction. I'll have to ask the seller to see a sample.

David, you might be my Ace-in-the-hole here. Got a decent scanner?

Yup, I got a good scanner ready to be fired, I could even send you the whole exploded view, man that thing is huge and a work of art in itself! Always good to have an ace of spades in the pocket

NAG. NAG. NAG.... don't ever say "I hate it when," now I am gonna PM you once a week.

I was only giving you a hard time (this is the second time I have mentioned it, hardly nagging).

Let me know if the others don't work out for you.

Heheh, no problem. I was teasing.

Being the promoter for the U.S. Vintage Trans Am Nationals has filled up my free time. I'll be lucky to get my car ready for the race.

Awesome. Right now, I need mostly the parts list with the part numbers. The whole manual would be awesome, but I have a contact in the UK that has NOS spares, and I need to get him part numbers of the pieces I still need to finish my SWB chassis.

If you could do the parts list in at least 200 dpi, that would be a massive help.
