at the Mopar meet. The two volume set parts catalog for all '69 Mopar cars. The guy had the illustration and application sections. They are in great shape and don't appear to have a lot of use. Got them for a buck and a quarter! I spoke to a few friends and they felt it was a good deal. So if anyone needs a part number send me a pm and I look it up for you.

That's cool, I've still never been to an all mopar show. Looks like I'm gonna have to get out more. I'm still looking for an original owners manual for my car that isn't outrageous price wise.

looks aftermarket, since there is no Chrysler Corp and Pentastar on the cover.

I took some pics of my books for reference. The first pic is from the parts book I just got. The second is a comparison of the copy of my 69 Plymouth shop manual, and to it's right the parts book. If it's a copy it must be a very old one because if you look closely you can see the parts book page is a faded yellow while the other is still nice and white. The third is an example from the parts book and the last is a statement about the copyright permission for my '65 Plymouth manual which is not seen in the parts book, for what's worth!

They look like someone copied the Chrysler parts manual and then made a book from them. The binder rings are pretty easy, we had one in the office for sales presentations.

For a couple of bucks, it's a good buy. We do have that same manual in the reference section too.

That's kind of what I was thinking it was, neat find for sure, I would have grabbed one if I ran acrossed it too.
here's my copy of the mitchell body shop book what is neat about it is those have prices in it for doing estimates and what cheap prices those are/were.
