You will need to get both the two volume 1965-71 set (which can only be found used) and the 4 volume 1972+ set which is a supplement to the 1965-1971 set.

Other books which are handy are the Haynes, and Waynes 101 projects.

What do you need the manuals for?

Between the 101 Projects book (sold here), the Bentley manual, and these fine forums, you should be set for most things short of cracking the engine or tranny.

Sadly, no Bentley for long noses (or any P-car) 1977 or older.

I was not aware of this book.

Do you or some one else here actually have a copy?

Can you tell us how it compares to the Bentley, Factory manuals and Haynes?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I have the one for 1970 to 1977. It has good information not found in the Bentley specific to our cars. It saved me hours doing the rear brakes with a simple tip on assembly. It is not a factory manual but it does discuss those year cars specifically.

Autobook adds to Bentley, but is scanty in general.
