Default Cost of C60X Manual

Hi Graeme
It was me that bought the manual and the cost so far is $126 Australian.
This includes:- Canadian to Australian currency conversion, tax and shipping to a forwarder in the US as the seller would not send direct to Australia.
I've not done this kind of transaction before and don't know what to expect from here on in.
I will post here if and when the book arrives.

David

Default Equipment suppliers

Hi Ed
It appears that the truck (cab/chassis) was a GM product whereas at least some of the bodies and equipment were sourced from Chrysler as all four of your manuals have Chrysler nomenclature.

I agree, I have 10 manuals for different Chrysler bodies but have yet to discover if GM provided any bodies.

Default Cautionary tale

On occasion I would prefer to remain ignorant and not get caught up in reality.
The manual is now in the hands of a forwarder in the US who will forward it on to Australia, at a cost of $168 USD. This is via UPS.
I am hopeful of getting it to an American contact (relative of a friend) and sort it out from there at a somewhat more realistic price.
Beware!

Default Postage

Dave,

You can have them send it to me in WA if you like. I can then post via USPS/Aust Post. It will still hover around $80 to $100 USD - that's the reality of postage to Australia. I can cost out more accurately if you like, based on a similar CMP manual.

Mike
