eBay for 1963 Imperial parts/FSM'S & parts books

["jsadowski" <jsadowski@xxxxxxx>]

I think the prices of these are getting so high is because people seem to think the one they're bidding on is the only one left to be had & pay far too much. Anyone that follows ebay regularly knows that most all years of these manuals are up for auction on a pretty regular basis. I wouldn't be surprised if there are 10 manuals to every one Imperial left today. However, I do think that whatever price, its money well spent. Just breaking one item because you didn't have the FSM to tell you how to get it appart would likely cost more to replace then the manual. Same goes for the parts book, many suppliers won't offer much help if you don't have the Chrysler part number for your seach. This is also why many wind up with a part they didn't want & can't get the vendor to take it back. The customer then blames the vendor for a problem that they didn't  create.

Subject: IML: eBay for 1963 Imperial parts

I just checked ebay for 1963Imperial parts to restore my two door.
There was a "nice" owner's manual that sold for $49.00.
That just floored me. I hesitated to spend $20 on one a few months ago. I'm
glad I did, as the one I got was mint.
Another that was pretty bad was thrown in with some other parts as a freebie.
I just can't believe that this literature is bringing this kind of money.
