The Sun definitely shines bright on you. Those things don't just start popping up. Unless its brought up in a "rare" thread.
Ive got all the scanned copied info to duplicate the manual that came with these. When I get the chance Ill make some and spread the wealth.  _________________

Thanks Jason. A copy of the manual would be real handy, as this set doesn't have one. Could you let me know about that? I was surprised that this set popped up. I was at the hospital with mom, and surfing my iPhone, when it suddenly appeared. What option did I have? Had to grab it. Fair price too. _________________ *****************

When I get on my feet Ill get some pics of mine, some copies made of the manny then we can have a nerdorium on it all. See about that elec cord thing and a good shot of the air hose. _________________

I dont necessarily think that the cord has been changed. Every one that I have seen has the cigarette plug on it. My silver socket is original, and I also have the original silver socket to cigarette plug adapter; I think this combo was intended to be used with the adapter. Will be doing some research. _________________ *****************

Yea, I think the Westy owners manuals actually specifically mention it. Like it says something like "using the adapter" or "with adapter" |

Being Coleman, is the compressor made in USA and VWoA specific I wonder? ? If so that explains the manual refering to an adaptor to go between the silver socket and the 12v plug. If that is the case, I wonder what they got with the spare tyre in Germany? Just the can of tyre weld I bet!

Yes, I agree with the theory; that was my belief too. Sniper....haha....I try. I have secured some pretty good stuff over the years. I am definitely a trinket miner; there are quite a few of us, but many of the ones that I know on The Samba keep a very low profile. Kirk, Notchy, and myself....well, that's a whole different story. _________________ *****************

Just picked up an original Manchester propane instruction leaflet. Probably not that rare but I've been looking for one for a while. This trinket mining is pretty fun! So...anyone have an original Sapphire XIV manual they want to part with? _________________ 1963 Ruby Red 356 Cabriolet

I dont have a radio manual, but I have all other 1979 relevant manuals and extra leaflets if anyone needs a copy of something. I have some somewhat unusual stuff too. Nothing too exciting though. _________________ *****************

Was there a specific pamphlet on the propane stove operation? _________________ 1963 Ruby Red 356 Cabriolet

Yes indeed, and warranty papers too, as I recall. Lemme know if you want copies. I'll scan them. _________________ *****************

Of course, perhaps I can post what I have and if anyone wants scanned copies, I can do that for them....except for big owners manuals and stuff like that. I ask for nothing in return. I am happy to help anyone that I can here. _________________ *****************

You could just scan them and have them posted in the Technical section. Then they're there for everyone. Either way, I appreciate your efforts! _________________ 1963 Ruby Red 356 Cabriolet

Here you go bigbore and A B Westy Nut...and anyone else. I have two original copies of this, and I am happy to share scans for free. If there is a trinket miner out there like me, who wants an original copy, I would sell one, but be warned, I will be looking for stupid money for this item. In fact, I am happy to keep it. For now, I am happy to share the scans.
In return, if someone could get me scan of the 1974 Coleman / VW air pump manual, I would be grateful. Enjoy.
Everett, please feel free to use these as donated by me.

Page 1 and 4
page 2 and 3

Glad you like it....it is a very spezzzzzial tool. I have lots of really good original literature, and I am happy to share it with folks, but I have put in a ton of time and money getting this stuff, and I am not sure that I am ready to just give it all up, and spend hours scanning it for the general populous. Selfish I know, but helping the odd guy would be a pleasure, for now. _________________ *****************
