    Reissued Factory Workshop Manuals?

    I was at the Stoddard website today and saw they had these for sale.

    I Presume they are the most up to date reissues.

    I ordered Vol 1-2 from Stoddard at the end of May and I am still waiting on them. They ship them as they get them. I was told printings happen every month or so, but perhaps that was referencing a pre-covid frequency.

    Much less expensive if you order from a dealer like Gaudin.

    Agreed - those manuals are currently $233 and $316 from Sunset. You just have to search for the part number.

    Back when this thread originally came up, I decided to order a set of the 65-71 manuals (WKD-480-520), but they were backordered at the time everywhere. Decided to look again, and they are now showing NLA at all suppliers, though the 72-on set is available.

    Does anyone know if there is new part number for the 65-71 manuals? I searched around and couldn't find anything. Alternatively, is there a PDF version available? I can only find 72-on for download. eBay prices for the early workshop manuals are all in the $700+ range, more than double what the reissued manuals were in 2021.

    I have an extra set of III, IV, V and VI. If interested, send a PM. I will then e-mail more detailed photos that show condition and we can discuss reasonable pricing.

    Thanks McOtto & Denniso, however what I am looking for is Vol I and II (the thick ones), WKD-480-520, which seem to now be NLA from Porsche.

    I'd still like to find a reasonably-priced hard copy set of Vol I & II, but did find a pdf version on 912BBS site:
