I think you'll find the manual at Ford is different to the one you will get at Pitstop, Supercheap, Repco etc, they will be a Ellory's or Gregory's manual where as the Ford one will be a factory manual for their mechanics, technitions and the like.

$54.95 is definitely NOT the complete Ford Workshop Manual. The basic three book manual is about $300.00 and then there are supplements for various models on top of that. So that price is either for a supplement of for a non-genuine manual.
PS. If it is non-genuine then best forget it - nothing compares to the genuine Ford Manual. |

yea i realize its not genuine and its written by Max Ellory and would imagine it done along the lines of a Gregory's or Haynes manual which is all I'll need, for specs and data the Ford manuals are good yes but i don't need to spend about 500 bucks which was what i was quoted to do what i need to do was only passing on some info for those who mite find it helpful.......Al
