Default Has anyone use the Helm repair manuals?

I would like to know if anyone has bought the Helm's shop manual for their Mustang? It's priced at $145.00. Is it helpful and easy to use for a home bolt twister?

Thanks

Yes I bought it. Yes it is very user friendly. About as good as it is going to get. It is the same manual the Ford dealers use. Well worth the money.

Yes.
Its got 3000 pages and detailed diagrams and schematics, you name it.
I don't have a Helm manual for a Ford Mustang, but I do have one for a 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP that I used to own.
I bought it brand new through the Helm website for $36.95 (includes $6.95 shipping). I was surprised at how much the price was because I was expecting it to be about $150 to $200 so I jumped on it and placed my order.
A couple of weeks later, I checked the price again and it was changed to $135.00. Opps! I they must've realized the price error and corrected it.
I lucked out.
Unfortunately, I don't have my Grand Prix anymore so I need to sell it.
