I have a 1979 assembly manual in a 3 ring binder. I keep seeing reference to AIM. Are they the same thing? If not, which is the best one for a novice like me? The reason I ask is mine is lacking in detail for instance it doesn't show the center shift console and it's removal.
AIM stands for assembly instruction manual, they are the same, maybe you have some pages missing. You might also want to get a correct service manual for your year. Look at the web sites of the different parts suppliers, they all have manuals for sale.

A point about AIMs: they do not show anything being removed; AIMs show assembly. Knowing how the console was installed often helps when taking it apart or removing it.
Sit down and page through the AIM again. What you want is in there unless you are missing pages/sections. My 79 AIM has 565 pages.

You were right. It was there! I was looking in the index and didn't see anything listed for interior. I noted your page and see it's listed in the index as "under body" A01 -A12. Thanks and guess I should have leafed through all the pages before asking.

It's amazing what you find if you have time and study each page,take notes when you find things in places you wouldn't think to look.

Sit down, get your favorite Corvette beverage, and spend the entire afternoon looking through the AIM. Technically, it isn't reading since there is no actual text in most of the AIM, but you'll find all kinds of notes on assembly, page revision dates, and all kinds of stuff.
