You wanted to read it more than once?

bubba428 09-06-2008 01:35 AM

I could do that with one ;)

SteveR 09-06-2008 02:27 AM

Or like with my pop-up books. Spot just doesnt seem to have that vigor he had when I first bought the book.

I got a manual for thirdgen birds at my house if anybody wants it. I think it may be a haynes but i could be wrong, but if someone wants it you can take it. Just buy me a Monster energy drink :P

EDIT- Yup Haynes manual for 82-91 birds. If anyone wants it let me know.

Such words of wisdom :lol:

If you have stuff left over when it's back together, well... you probably didn't need it anyway...

Ha ha, sometimes the companies make ya feel like they put extra pieces in it just to mess with you. One time I put together a mig-welding cart, and had a couple extra nuts and bolts left over, then got mad, because I actually saw where I needed them. The cart was fine without them, but I took the whole thing apart and put it back together. Good times. -Jeff.
