Maybe adding scanned pages for trouble shooting and specs on different items, I have some owner's manuals installation guides and chassis manuals for chevy p30 and work horse, Like your DIY section , maybe a reference guide, i tryed to post some in the browse area but were too large.

I am sure Steve will want them.  Just wait til he answers and tells you where to send them.

Yes. Let me ask you, when you scan them....what format are they in "images" or "PDF"...this will effect how we store and display them on the site.

If you wouldn't mind emailing me a few pages I would like to try something that would make it available and online to registered members.

Let me know what you guys think about this idea: http://www.thisoldrv.com/Manuals/KiweeSteps.aspx

You can "turn" the page by gabbing the corner and "turning" the page with your mouse.

Ideally...manuals would be in PDF format...but most member don't have the software to so this...so what I can do is make on "online manual" and then allow people to download the manual images (in a zip file)....check out the page again and tell me what you think.

And thanks for sending the images.

I agree. If this works for member then I can setup each manual in a directory. I can tell you I've spent a lot of time looking for manuals so creating a repository would be terrific. I'll post the other one you sent me. Thanks!
