shop manuals
Hi Folks, I gave the buyer of my last c5 the set of shop manuals I had. Now that I’m back in C5 land, I was wondering what others do. I found them helpful, because some of what I found online seemed to miss some detail. There’s a source of PDF versions on Ebay, but for some reason I’m suspicious of their low price of $9. I’d appreciate any advice the brethren may have. Thanks!

I ordered my 2002 set expecting 3 volumes and got 5 volumes two of which i never saw before,
These are the real. I like the paper myself but they have both.

I tried that link but got one of those ‘domain’ sites for sale. I guess they are gone?

I almost bought these for my 04 but scored a complete set shipped for a reasonable price just before hitting buy. THey are the BISHKO which appear to be a legit GM Restoration parts partner. They also have paper manuals.
