Erndog 48 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Has anyone seen or owned a copy of "Engineering Information - Buick 1930 Models"? I am considering buying a copy, but want to know more about what is in its 160 pages before I drop that kind of money on it. Link to post Share on other sites
Bill - 29 Buick 79 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Ernie: A 1929 original came up maybe 25 years ago and sold, on eBay for something like $1,500. You can check it out at: <http://1929buick.com/gallery/engineering>. When you get ready to restore your 29's, let me know. Bill McLaughlin Link to post Share on other sites
Erndog 48 Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 Wow! Looks like some good information. Not sure if it would have enough special information to warrant the cost of the reproduction copy. It would be good if it had some nitty gritty measurements, etc., such as body measurements and the like. You would be one of the first to know if I ever get around to those '29's. I seriously doubt it will be in my lifetime, considering how long this 30-61 is taking and the fact that they are at the other end of the country. Link to post Share on other sites
Erndog 48 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Bill, Not to beat a dead horse, but would you know if these notes give specific body dimensions, i.e. width, height, length in various areas, not just overall? Link to post Share on other sites
Erndog 48 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 I was just looking at your Buick-Marquette 1930 Fisher Body Manual on your site. That is the most informative body manual I have seen yet. It even tells what size screws to use in some cases. Link to post Share on other sites
Bill - 29 Buick 79 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Ernie: I have never seen a full copy of the 1929 Engineering Info Manual so not sure what is all in it. However, the index and number off pages in it on Kevin's website would indicate that there would be lots. Which Buick-Marquette 1930 Fisher Body Manual are you referring to ?
