Wondering if anyone can suggest where to purchase the various driver's manuals, parts manuals and so on. Originals are a bit pricey - I'm not worried about finding originals. The Registry sells repros for $70. Anywhere else? I have a few bits in pdf that kindly folk have sent my way over the years and would love to find other pdf sources, so I can always access stuff on my phone when out and about. Cyberwerkstatt has some manuals that are accessible page by page (...thank you) but not downloadable.
Many thanks for any suggestions.

Charlie White? He has copies, originals and pdfs.

I think PRS also have copies for sell too.

Re: Driver's manuals and similar stuff
DerWhites book isn't necessarily what it appears to be. The hype suggests it contains "Workshop Manuals & Parts Books!"... "Owner's Manuals & Service Bulletins."
It does contain photos of the covers of these publications but not the guts. It's an expensive book, especially when shipped to the UK but it may not be as comprehensive as you might expect.

Hi Phil
I have a set of der whites for a 1960 b if you would like to see them, or whatever you need. I'm only in Brentwood so not a million miles away.
Regards
Doug
