Default Model A Service Bulletins

Saw a copy of the 2003 edition and enjoyed looking thru it. Wonder if there is a larger copy as the text and pictures are quite small. Or, are the originals larger and are they still out there ? Thanks, Bill

I have a set like the ones Joop posted. Sometimes they show up on ebay. I bought my set at a national meet many years ago.

I just received mine from Bratton's. Nice paperback edition 8 1/2 by 11. easy to read and less than $17. 16.95, I think.

Reprint Service Bulletins in French are also available through the Club Obsolete Ford France:

Reprints of the Service Bulletins in German are also available. They show up from time to time on the German eBay.de.

Fordially,

A nice full size copy was also reprinted by Ben Staub in 1974. I have one of those copies. I still like the small reprint for getting dirty in the garage.

The small yellow reprint looks good in my garage also. And it is a neat conversation piece. Unfortunately, it never gets opened by me since these "old" eyes just see a blurr. The full size green book does an adequate job for me.

I bought one of those back then. Often the print and especially diagrams are too small for me to comprehend in the small books. Also the small books eliminated the quaint cartoons exhorting the dealers to render better service.

Here are scans of a page from Ben Staub's Bulletins and the same page from a well preserved original. Hard to tell here, but the original has a much softer look and a little better detail while Staub's page has a much harsher and stark look. The original is the first pic.

Both have the same info of course.

Time out. Sorry. The repo page is on the Left and the original on the right.
