Title: big blue book
Post by: n/a on March 10, 2005, 11:22:17

Hi

I am looking for a repair manual for a 1969 280sl. I have heard that they have what is called the big blue book and it supposedly on cd-rom. Despite my efforts, I have not been able to locate one.

Does anyone have a link to the site?

Thanks

Here is the link for the book but the site doesn't appear to include the CD for the w113.

I went to the site and you are correct. Nothing for the 113.

Anyone else have an idea where to pick up the repair manual on cd for a 1969 280sl?

Thanks

Mike

There IS in fact a manual on the W 113 (only they call it the R 113 - why?):

280 SE/ C, 280 SE/ C 3.5 (W111), 280 SL (R113), 280 S/ SE/ SEL (W108), 300 SEL/ 109.016, 300 SEL 3.5, 6.3 (W109)

The "R" stands for Roadster and appears to have been retrospectively applied to all SL's on any of the new DC Publications !
