Subject: VANAGON manual database
Okay, here's what I have compiled based on the past week or two's messages
about manuals and other literature. I'm proposing that this be included in
the FAQ and/or on the gopher site. Please take a look at it and if you see
something that's incorrect let me know or if you have additional details.
Also, if your name appears in the list but you'd rather it didn't let me
know that, too, and I'll be happy to remove you from the list. And if you
AREN'T on the list but would like to make manuals you have available to
others, let me know THAT, too. (Whew, I think I covered all the
categories!) After a week or so I'll post again with any changes I receive,
and maybe some kind soul (Gerry, Joel, ?) will take care of incorporating
it into the collective VANAGON consciousness. Thanks!

TYPE II LITERATURE AVAILABLE
The following collection of owner's manuals and other literature related to
Transporters is available from other VANAGON list members. Most of these
manuals are out of print and hard to come by, and therefore the holders have
offered to make copies for the benefit of others. Some of these manuals are
quite lengthy, so PLEASE: no idle curiousity requests. For the larger
repair type manuals, it might be advantageous to request certain sections
rather than the entire manual. In any case, "contributions" to cover
postage and copying fees would probably be appropriate, or offers to trade
for literature you have. Please contact Pat Walsh
<walshp@ippdsgi3.nawc-ad-indy.navy.mil> for additions/deletions/corrections
to this list. Thanks!
