You may ask "why pay for access ?" or "why buy these manuals ?"
Good question. If you are a mid 50's Buick owner, and you are fixing/restoring or otherwise enjoying your ride, you will find many items of benefit on my site.
- You'll have access to some very rare literature and manuals that are specific to 1956 Buicks.
- Larger Catalogs and Service Manuals are scanned in high resolution and processed with optical character recognition allowing them to be printed out as many times as you wish *OR* you can search keywords efficiently on your local computer.
- You can print out relevant diagrams, get them greasy while working on your car, and simply reprint again a clean copy when you need it. No more soiling/ruining of original manuals !
- Imagine having a portable Master Chassis or Body Parts catalog next time you are at a swap meet, and you want to verify a part number you are about to buy. If you've downloaded one of my scanned and searchable PDF copies of the manual, you can do that on a laptop or iPhone right there where you are standing.
- The one time cost of the manuals are far, far outweighed by the time and value of the materials available to you on our favorite subject, 1956 Buicks.
- You can download or copy the manuals to your local computer and you will always have a copy of them, regardless of whatever happens to me. No different than buying those same manuals for much, much more $$ on eBay.
- The quality of scans I perform are markedly better than what you find from the other online vendors. This is because I personally hand scan each page from an ORIGINAL manual-- not some copy of a copy (of a copy) that'd you'd get from other places. This is the real deal. The scanned photos & diagrams are sharp copies of originals-- and I have all the originals right here in my office.
