Try different websites, do a search for "auto repair manuals", etc.....you find many places with used ones at a fraction of the new cost.

FWIW, before the 'net, I had to pay about $110.00 from Helm to get the manuals for my car...about 7 or 8 years ago...I'm sure their price has gone up.

Well, I did the search, all I found was new ones from Helms, and a bunch of places to get the Chiltons & Haynes.
I'm gonna call Dal at Vandevere, but if anyone has a link to get them used, please post it!
I know I've seen one posted, & probably have it in this hard drive somewhere, but I can't find it!

Thanks!!!

I paid under $25 for my owners manual, including shipping.

Shop manual is what I'm looking for, I guess HELMS is it since I can't find a used one?

there was a bunch on ebay about a week ago. They might still have some up there. Depending on what year you need.
