If anyone is interested there is an early 911 owners manual on ebay, German with no date in good condition for $695 BIN, a pretty good price. Not mine.

It was snatched up quickly this morning by someone who thanked me nicely but was on ebay for a week at the reduced price. I almost bought it myself many times.
I find it hard to believe that a first edition German owner's manual was on ebay for a week for 700 clams and no one here saw it. Something's rotten in Denmark. And Southern California.
I'm guessing that just because it didn't have a date doesn't necessarily mean it was first edition.
The I/65 drivers manual must then be the first dated (english) version? Has "911" in the lower right corner of the cover. My I/65 manual shows the gas door pull knob in the driver door hinge area. Thumbed through it today for the first time in ages, lots of inconsistency in the photos.

Soterik, (for lack of your real first name)
I have an undated early 911 driver's manual (W312) that I'd like to
get more information about. Regarding the very early 911 owner's
manuals, what should I be looking for to determine how early it is?
Any help appreciated!

This made my night. I cannot believe you two have never met!
Frank,
You will understand a little more after YOU have had a stroke like I had. Memories
disappear, conversations become difficult because those memories are gone. I
remember the name Soterik, but not his real name. Wait until you turn 73!

I hope Der White forgot telling me I should jump out of an airplane with no parachute after I reminded the 356 Registry how Porsche used to call seat belts "chicken belts". Mild compared to whats his name. Ill never win a popularity contest.
Rough and tumble thread.
I'm in.
I believe this is a first edition.
Feel free to challenge me as I would like to confirm the facts in this discussion.
