Question GM Shop Manual Giveaway Poll (please vote)

Please vote this will help me decide which manuals to part with.

I'd really appreciate some polling input on the subject of GM Shop Manuals. Over the years I have accumulated a number of GM Corvette Shop Manuals and would like to give a few away to members (free) after Xmas, say around February, so I'd like opinions on what would be the 2 most popular.

I am willing to part with the following:

1989, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2003, 2005 Corvette Service Manuals
Each Manual has than 3000 pages of repair instructions written by GM, these are original manuals with a few paw prints on them (mine). They contain Diagnostic Information and Procedures, Schematics and Routing Diagrams, Component Locater, Repair Instructions, Description and Operation, Specifications, and Special Tools and equipment. Service information on HVAC, Body & Accessories, Steering, Suspension, Driveline/Axle, Brakes, Engine and Transmission/Transaxle..... and on and on.

I have other manuals, so vote OTHER and reply to this post, if none of the above interest you.

Smile GM Service Manuals.....

Chick.....

What a nice offer. 1996 manuals for LT4 is what I badly need. This is my first corvette and although I'm quite experienced on cars and aircraft, I'm feeling my way along without a manual for my '96 LT4 coupe.

Here's an offer. If you have and can share a set of '96 manuals with me, I'll make a contribution of $50 in your name to St. Jude Children's Hospital which is here in Memphis, or to any charity or research organization of your choice.

If this sounds possible, please email me at scmedtest@aol.com

Thanks.

LT4 Steve

Thank you for that offer and if you could make the contribution to the Jewish Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky or any hospital that does limb transplants. This is my brother below, who lost all his limbs, both hands and legs, a few years ago, to a freak illness. It aged him considerably and he has yet to make the decision to try at least one hand/arm transplant.

I too will make a donation to the hand hospital. Your brother's challenge is a severe one, I pray he has strength every day to heal.
Your kindness is appreciated, you share with everyone!
I would put 99 manuals to good use. Thank you

He is driving with the prosthetics, and doing allot of things like mowing his lawn etc... but it's very, very depressing for him to say the least, to wake up like that every day. He is on medication for severe depression but, well you can imagine?

Thank you all. This hospital, Jewish Hospital is the only one in the US that does hand transplants.

Federal funding is geared toward places that do life saving transplants such as heart/lung, and kidneys so they need all they can get. If you read anything at the hospital site, just 1 hand transplant takes a team of 25 to 30 surgeons and a whole lot of nurses, and it's a 17 hour operation. Anyway it's a worthy cause.
