Default 1969 Corvette Brochure

I have downloaded and/or scanned in the pages of the 1969 Brochure. They needed quite a bit of cleanup, and I have turned them into a PDF. It took a bit of work to reduce it to a size that I would be able to put on the Forum. It is only 7 physical pages, but the file size was 1.2GB. I was hoping to make the file smaller, but it is what it is. I am also working on a number of other brochures from 1962 to 1978. It's a lot of work when you are doing it for free so that it can be shared with other Corvette people.

I didn't know that I was going to get grief for trying to give Corvette people some documentation. I have deleted it!!!

You can share them ... for FREE ... If you copy them to sell, you are violating copyright laws and GM will put a halt to it. How will they know? You posted it here on a public site......

What part of they are there for people to download for free didn't you understand? They were copied from other sites for free also.

Wrong.... not commenting on this particular post, but it doesn't matter if it's free or not, if something is copyright, it can not be distributed as the owner has ALL rights of distribution.

Re-opening this just to clarify: Its true that GM and other companies own copyrights to their work and at the site we are occasionally asked to remove posts of things like wiring diagrams or other original items produced by companies, citing they did not allow copyrighted use. Whether or not such occasions result in legal action against the poster or a person who chose to alter those documents for others’ use is an entirely different matter, but copyright is a consideration at times, just FYI. We will remove copyright-related posts when requested (the site is massive, so the handful of staff do not always see or anticipate them).
