    Aftermarket parts catalogs are quite helpful if you are trying to find parts for your car, or you have a bunch of parts you are trying to identify. This catalog is 8-1/2" x 11" and is USED, but is 100% COMPLETE. That means it is most likely not in pristine condition. That would include scuffs, scrapes, pages that are dog-eared, folded or slightly torn, or slight damage from dirt, soiling or moisture. Any damage will not affect readability or the information in the catalog. You should be buying it for the information it contains, not how pretty it looks.
    Please be aware of some **limitations** of these catalogs, however.
    The majority of these catalogs do NOT list parts that are no longer available, as of the PRINT DATE of the catalog. Most of the time, if they stopped making it, they simply stopped listing it. There are a few companies that were an exception, but by and large, if it's obsolete (no longer manufactured), it's NOT listed.
    What this means to someone looking for one of these catalogs is that it usually is desirable to find one printed somewhere near the time period you are interested in. I've found that most effective is a catalog printed about 3-6 years AFTER the specific year of a car.
    For example, if you've got a 1965 Impala, you'd probably be better off purchasing a 1970 catalog (if available), than a 1965 catalog. The 1970 catalog will tell you if that part will fit 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969 or 1970 Impala, as well as 1965 or earlier. Oftentimes, this can make a big difference to your search for the "needle in the haystack" that is the part you want. Chances are real good that a part this company offered just 5 years earlier will still be available and not obsoleted. However, if you buy a 1984 printing of the same catalog, they may not even show a listing for a 1970 Impala, let alone 1965.
    And as usual, there are some exceptions. In the late 1980's and early 1990's, when some aftermarket companies found out there was a large enough marketplace for "antique - classic" cars, some of them expanded their catalogs to re-include older model parts that they had all but ignored just 5 years earlier. They still manufactured the part (or had a sizeable number in stock that they didn't want to destroy), but previously they figured their dealers with that type of clientele would retain old catalogs to search out these parts. After all, a 300 page catalog with mostly the newer, more popular items, was much cheaper to print than a 600 page catalog with all their stocking items for both newer and older cars. This is especially logical if they did not believe a substantial enough marketplace existed for them to heavily promote the older items they still produced. Fortunately, we proved them wrong.
    The result is that a catalog from the early 1990's may indeed have more coverage of older parts than a catalog from the same company printed in the mid-1980's. But, and this is a
    BIG BUT!
    - the newer a catalog and the further back you see coverage, the skimpier that coverage usually is. I have listed the earliest year of coverage along with the print/year date of the catalog. But, the year I've listed as earliest is just from a quick glance through the catalog, and just because one make has coverage for a particular year, doesn't mean any other makes do. Case in point: gasket catalogs - 1932 Fords are listed, but no other car until 1934, and some makes not until 1937.

    Shipping - Payment
    A few words to make things easier.
    Combined shipping for multiple auctions is always available, but eBay's rules have made this unnecessarily more complicated for both of us than what you would think.  When you find several items that you would like to buy, the only way to escape eBay charging you all the separate shipping fees (one for each auction) for multiple auctions, is for me to modify those auctions, and that has to be done
    BEFORE
    you click to buy them.  Once you have clicked to buy them, it is too late, and eBay has them set in stone - permanently unchangeable!
    All you have to do is to email me ahead of time with the items and auction numbers (GOT to have those auction numbers!).  At that point, I can modify the auctions to remove the "immediate payment required".  And I will email you back to let you know this step is done.  Then you can click to win them without immediately paying (and including separate shipping charges).  After you're done clicking to win them all, I can then send you an invoice with a combined shipping charge.  Again, you will have to wait just a little bit for the invoice to arrive in your email.  If we're lucky, this whole process could take just minutes, if both of us happen to be at our computers at the same time.
    If all this sounds just a little too complicated or bothersome, you can just ignore it, and click to win as many as you want.  However, I cannot refund the excess shipping amounts that eBay will collect from you, if you don't allow me to modify the auctions.
    All this is an effort to help you save some money.
    Thanks for your bid.
