Where is the best/cheapest place to get a shop manual? Is it better to get the paper edition or CD-ROM? Thanks everyone!

 

I have some pdf manuals, and I'd have to say that unless you have a computer in your garage it is so much better to have a paper edition. I can't tell you how much easier it would be if I didn't have to run up two flights of stairs to check if I'm doing the procedure correctly. I could print them off, but do that enough and I may as well have gotten paper.

However, paper editions are not cheap or easy to come by anymore. So electronic is not a huge problem. Just read over it a few times for memory so you won't have to go reread it.

Start by searching ebay for the paper edition.

 

Here is a free online manual for a 66.

I bought the PC based manual and love it. I also have it on an old laptop in the garage (saran wrap over keyboard).
Bought it here: http://www.fordmanuals.com/
The owner is a great guy and has 2 classic mustangs of his own he has restored

Here is the one for a 65

Ebay will have them affordably priced. If you dont find a 65 manual, a 66 manual will work as well.
