Workshop Manuals needed

The AOC is looking to gather all the available Alvis workshop/technical manuals and store them digitally, making them available as downloads to AOC members. This would add further information to the existing Manuals of Instructions and Spare Parts Catalogues which are already available as downloads on the members-only section of the AOC website.  Do you have a copy (physical, i.e paper, or digital, i.e. a CD or pdf) of any workshop manuals, repair manuals or similar technical guidance? Please note this request does not include the Compendium of Technical Articles from the Bulletin which was compiled by our Technical Advisor, Nick Simpson.    If so, and you're prepared to share what you have with the AOC membership, thus preserving this knowledge for existing and future Alvis owners and workshops, please reply to this notice with details of what you have. I'll then let you know (a) if we need it and (b) what we would like you to do. Please rest assured if you lend the AOC any materials, they will be returned to you safely.

Hi Richard  I've checked with our vice Chair what we have/need from your list - would you be prepared to have them scanned and email them?  We don't need the AOC Technical Compendium - but we would love to have the others...  Best regards  Philip Posted by Philip 16/03/2017 14:52:50
