Post subject:  Asparagus and seeking Gregory's No. 64 manual

G'day everyone.

Being an ignorant Yank, what is the significance of the asparagus on the home page today?

I bought the Gregory's 64 manual on ebay, and have a buddy who needs a copy too. Anyone have one they wish to sell, or know of a good used store that I could contact?

Thanks and talk soon.

I have about 6 Mini manuals...

The Gregorys is one of the few with correct wiring diagrams for Oz roundies.
It also has the Oz doors with windup windows and quarter vents, not just the UK windups that we never ever got.

IMO the Haynes is pretty useless for Oz cars, and the Leyland Aust `black book' has all the wrong wiring diagrams too- bloody UK reprints again. But at least this one has the full auto trans manual included.:P

Note- the Gregorys #64 was previously called Scientific Publications #64.

<edit> of all my manuals, this is the most grease stained and dogeared. 8)

And the Mini King catalogue - helps heaps as the #64 is not always that clear for us non professional mechanics!

Apparently not, because I have no clue what asparagus means. Is it some religious symbol, or are you just toying with me now? :) Help?
