Car: 89 RS Convertible Engine: 305 TBI Transmission: 700R4 | Convertible Schematic Sheets
I was cleaning out the 89 convertible for the winter and found some schematics in a binder underneath the rear seat. I assume they belonged to the previous owner, since the pages listed are for a "1991.5" car, but mine is a 1989 RS. Anyone else come across anything like this? It seems to be a complete set of the changes done to a convertible. Here is an example. |

you need to resize the image to make it smaller.
if resizing it ruins the image quality so that you cant read it, PM me and i'll give you a email address to send it to... i can post it online if needed. | |

Car: 87 IROC 92 Z-28 92 RS 91 Ragtop Engine: 5.7 Transmission: 700-r4 | Processed images
R4Tek, you did a great job scanning the hard copy, the TIFs have a lot of detail. Since I work in the publishing industry, I took the opportunity to process the TIFs into high quality JPGs and recompile the layout and design. The 8.5x11 200 dpi JPGs are about 350k each. I'd like to email them back to you for redistribution, or, if someone has an extra 10 megs free space on a server, let me know. I'll also compile all the images into a PDF book. Here's a sample page in much lower quality 72 dpi 9x6.

Car: 87 IROC 92 Z-28 92 RS 91 Ragtop Engine: 5.7 Transmission: 700-r4 | R4Tek,
There's some images out of sequence, would appreciate if you could check if a couple were missed, so I could complete work on the set and compile them into a PDF book.

Car: 1989 Formy droptop/88 Deville Engine: L98 350 TPI Transmission: factory RWD, WS6 susp | I got a copy via my TopsonLine top as well. Most of you may have seen the 8 hour install thread? I'm getting to the stage where the top should be getting put on in a matter of days, say this weekend?!? The glue was an issue but the $20 general adhesive 3M stuff I did buy, NAPA tells me is their best and should work....will give it a go and also try the number of Hughes and 3M products listed in those instructions included. I should add, a similar, but brief copy exists in the Chilton manuals for Firebirds, at leasts, in the same year ranges
One thing I'm not too clear on is the hinge mounts for the trunk below the deck... can't visually locate how to remove to repair...needed to move the trunk back in proper place, avoiding a body shop fee

Bill,
I'm glad to hear you are finally getting around to doing your top!
I seem to remember one of the guys on here who did their own really liked the glue he used a lot - Gorilla Glue. I've never tried it but I do remember that he was very high on it.
Speedy
