Hello fellow vette people, Here in Eagle Pass, Texas and learning "how to be a vette" owner. Just when I thought all the kids were out of the nest..... looking for an owner's manual. Knowing from my experience with a somewhat vintage aircraft PA 23-250 Aztec C model - managed to find an original or reproduction of operator's handbook; maybe the same is possible for my new arrival?

Hi Ron,

I've seen owner's manuals in the pages of Corvette Central, MidAmerica Design, and other parts catalogs. By now most of them are reproductions but you might get lucky and find an original at a vendors stand at a car show or a swap meet.

If originality doesn't bother you, the repros are fine and pretty cheap. Originals are expensive but contain the same information as the repros. I have both. I use my repro for information and keep the original in the rear compartment.

I found mine on EBay, in excellent shape, with a couple of the other smaller manuals that GM included with the manual.

Laters!

I bought an original for my '79 on Ebay. Just type your year, and "corvette" on the search window, and hit enter. That will list only your year for corvette stuff.
