This PDF-format USB offers page-for-page reproductions of seven bound manuals that Ford mechanics used to service vehicles. It includes the 488 pages "1957 Ford Car Shop Manual," the 40 page "1957 Ford Retractable Hardtop Shop Manual," the 192 page "1955-61 Air Conditioning Theory, Diagnostics, and Repair Manual," and the 181 page "Fordomatic Transmission Service Manual" by Paul Marsh. You will find detailed service procedures for engines, ignition, fuel, cooling, chassis, suspension, Fordomatic transmission, air conditioning, frames, steering, brakes, generating & starting, lights, instruments, accessories, body maintenance & repair, doors, deck lids, front sheet metal, interior trim, seats, windows, body installation, maintenance and lubrication. You will find detailed instructions for operating the retractable top with diagrams illustrating the location of motors and switches, a trouble shooting section with color coded wiring diagrams (not in color), and step-by-step instructions for electrical & mechanical adjustments, and removal & installation of assemblies. With the step-by-step illustrated instructions, specifications, and wiring diagrams on this USB, you will have the information you need to get your project on the road and keep it there.
Also included on the USB is the 548 page "1955-57 Ford Chassis Parts Catalog," the 908 page "1949-59 Ford Car Parts and Accessories Text Catalog," and the 905 Page "1949-59 Ford Car Parts and Accessories Text Catalog"--the same books that the Ford dealer parts departments used to order parts. These books will make your search for parts both quicker and easier. You will find the original part numbers, which are still useful today because most vendors still use factory numbers to keep track of their stock the exploded views can aid you with assembly or disassembly of some parts of the vehicle.
The best part is that you can print out the pages you need, dirty them in the shop, and then throw them away. Great if you have a hard copy that you want to keep clean. We have manuals on paper also -- see our other items.
