Default Build Manuals

Does anyone know anything about the assembly manuals they sell on ebay?

I just purchased, or rather rescued, a 76 L48 and it's missing alot of parts. it has been sitting, wrecked, for 5 years and has had some of it's parts taken to "fix up" a 70 convertable belonging to the previous owner.

anyway they say they contain information on ever nut, bolt and screw on the car including all the wiring diagrams for just under $30.00. I was wondering if it's worth it at all.

Thanks

they sell them brand new with the binder for 23.95 in the corvette central catalog page #7---they also sell the shop manuals for 29.95 and service manuals for 27.95-and these are BRAND NEW... ARE THE ONES ON E BRAND NEW? IF NOT I WOULD THINK TWICE IF USED(missing pages or some bubbas greasy fingerprints on the pages you need to read!!!)

Bought one for my 1980 on a CD for $15.00 on Ebay. The shop manual parts manual and an electrical troubleshooting manual all on one disk.
I think around 1300 pages.You do have to search for what you are looking for then print it.So far has worked out Okay.
