The three books are: 1. The thick green one, it has all mechanical & electrical except Monaro & Brougham stuff. This is because it was published in early 1968, before they were released. 2. Thinner green one, body supplement (Except Monaro & Brougham) 3. Another thin green one, Monaro & Brougham supplement. This has only the extra bits, you will still need the thick one. Dr Terry |
If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

I don't believe that anybody has republished the HK books, but the thick one is relatively commonplace (2nd hand) around swap meets, eBay etc. The other 2 are quite rare though.

Its where mine came from, but they were expensive, don't remember how much but I cringed at the time. http://www.bevenyoung.co...ndex.php?main_page=indexIf thats no good to you, then inside the front cover it says STAN H EARLE PTY LTD 46 Isabella Street Moorabbin VIC 3189 Tel 555-6555 Maybe google Stan H Earle and give them a call. hope that helps a bit, worth a try cheers Mick Edited by user Saturday, 23 April 2011 11:18:09 PM(UTC)

Stan Earle did them (republished), initially separate and then combined into one book. I would enquire here as they are part of Stan H Earle P/L http://www.bookworks.com.auand ask if they are still publishing it

I too have the reproduced version by Stan H. Earle Pty Ltd. They consist of 2 volumes containing the following:
Volume 1:
Section 1 - HK Mechanical
Volume 2:
Section 2 - HK Body and Sheetmetal
Section 3 - HK Supplement - Body and Mechanical relating to the Monaro and Brougham
Section 4 - HT Supplement and HG Supplement
I originally picked them up from the Pitstop Bookshop ($180.95 delivered) a couple of years ago however they don't seem to be selling them now. |

I hadn't noticed that issue with my set. Perhaps you just got a bad copy or I was just lucky. Edited by user Tuesday, 26 April 2011 8:11:26 AM(UTC)
