Ok so Ive scanned 239 pages of workshop manual, and ive uploaded each one to Photobucket.. I havnt had any other success in uploading JPEGS onto the net... Ive tried converting them to PDF's but still ends up being a 405mb file....

So here is the photobucket link, and in there u will find sub-folders for each chapter of the manual......

It was very time consuming, but u get that. I guess the only way for u to get a copy will be to open each pic and save it to ur PC......

No more excuses for not having a workshop manual!!!!!

Be aware tho that this does not cover Oz Mini's or big bore engines.... It was printed in like 1963....


EDIT (this has now been placed in the How-To's section)

Well done - no need for you to worry about copyright issues either as no doubt this edition is out of print - thereby making copying for research and study purposes all legit. (me - ex librarian).

It is a shame you had .pdf problems though.

Publishing copyright expires 25 years after first publication. Authorship copyright expires after 75 years. - try and find an author's name on the work- if not a staffer it was contracted out - they would have to be able to prove they wrote the words and drew the drawings

There are also manuals available on Joltfreaks site, one of them is broken down into chapters. Lotsa other technical info too.

Enjoy.

Well done Hanra, wish I had the patience as I have recently been given a Leyland MINI Workshop Manual (with Australian supplement), AKD4935 ISBN 1 85520 1615, that would be good for puting up on the net as it is in absolute pristine condition. (It is a large publication of 550 pages) My brother-in-law picked it up at a market on Coochiemudlo Island for $20 and by its appearance, has probably only ever been looked at once. For all you Ausmini guys, before you ask, it is a small island in Moreton Bay about 30mins from Brisbane CBD, with approxmately 130 homes on it.

BTW, I have also recently been given ADO15, including the updates, also in pristine condition. Much better than my dog-eared, grease stained manual I bought back in 1975.

cheers

David

I just hope this can be made permanent on here or something, that way no one can have the excuse of saying that they dont have a workshop manual. Obviously this manual isnt the be all and end all, as it dosnt cover all models. But it does cover the basics.

Wow, hell of an effort!
Thanks Hanra :D

Ridgid foam sealing inside the sills? Well I learned something new today.
I thought only cars in the last 10 years or so got that sort of treatment.
