Default Quick AIM question for 81...

Maybe it is just me, and that is a very real possibility, but after I got my AIM for my 81 and was looking through it (excited as ever) i realized, alot of it I cant even read. The words are blurry, I cant really see any of the pictures...did I get a bad one or am I just unskilled in the art of reading an AIM?

Copies of copies of copies etc, may be one reason. I also suspect that when they were first obtained from GM and copies were made, the person/persons doing the copy really didn't want to invest too much time into copying. My 78 AIM is like that also. But I could also be way off, I really don't know the reason, just my guess.

I had the same issue with my AIM that the PO gave me when i bought the car. I recently bought an electronic version and it is a little better as i can view it on my iPad and zoom in and make it out a little better.
