I got all applicable manuals from Grant, and quite happy with them.

One small issue is that the manuals are mostly M38 A1, and CDN 2. If you have a CDN 3, there is a slim annex to one of the manuals which gives you bare bones info.

I'm always on the lookout for manuals, CFTOs etc specifically related to CDN 3.

M38A1CDN= hinges on front grill, battery box lid has older style fasteners to hold it down, 25 amp generator.
M38A1CDN2=No hinges on front grill, single catch for battery box lid, 60 amp alternator
M38A1CDN3=As above but closed hood hinges (hood doesn't fly off your head if you forget to do up hood latches), flat hubs on rear axles (one piece axles) oversize self adjusting brakes, factory seat belts (reinforcements welded as part of body tub), re-enforced frame over rear springs (prone to cracking on earlier models)

These are just the bare bones, there are a multitude of other differences. The 70/71 was the best year in my opinion. Some of the earlier vehicles would get the later options as upgrades (ie: turn signals, seatbelts, heater, closed loop spring shackles) so I have not mentioned these differences as they cannot be used to definitely ID the series of production.
