Default Owner’s Manual PDF?

Anyone have a source for the 1969 owners manual as a digital copy? My searches on this forum and on google have come up empty.

I don't know about a PDF but the reprints are pretty cheap and you can get them on ebay.

Thanks for the tip yes I am aware of the available eBay copies. Just wanted a digital copy to have as backup with a benefit being digital versions are searchable.

Buy a reprint & then scan it as a pdf ... although thumbing through a '71 owners manual takes only a minute or two.

maybe there's an eleven-year-old in your circle who'd scan it for a Mickey D's gift card.

I like the pdf because, if it's hi-rez I can magnify the smaller bits; in addition to search

This does not include the owner's manual, but you may find the information in this PDF of factory documentation to be useful:

(p.s.: You can get other years by just changing the "1969" in the url to whatever you want.)
