So while I am waiting to start my Oval restoration I have been collecting items I want for it. Just mainly odds and ends as I come across them. Now I am trying to find an owners manual and I had a question. Since my car is was produced in January 1956 shouldn't it have an August 1955 Owners Manual? |

I honestly don't know but I see there is a January, 1956 Owner's Manual listed on the site so if I was to guess, it came with that one.
It's possible the January edition just has some correction or update though.
Often if there is a new version soon after an August issue, it is because of some correction. _________________ How to Post Photos

Thanks, my wife got that manual for me at Christmas.
The only January manual I saw was in German. |

Unlike the vehicles I don't think the manuals followed a particular printing date pattern. _________________ Roads Scholar &
