    Vintage "pre 901/911 Porsche" books...

    All,
    I'm seeking the collective wisdom of any of you "vintage Porsche bibliophiles"
    I recently came across some vintage, "pre-901" Porsche reading material here, and I'd like to get a feel for what they could be worth...
    The books are:
    1. PORSCHE GUIDE - by Sloniger, pub 1958 by Sports Car Press Ltd 5"x8" approximate size
    2. PORSCHE COMPLETE OWNERS' HANDBOOK OF REPAIR & MAINTENANCE - BY O Cee Rich, pub 1960 by Floyd Clymer, 5"x8" approximate size
    3. PORSCHE TECHNICAL MANUAL - by Henry Elfrink, 2nd edition pub 1963 by Henry Elfrink Automotive 5"x8"approximate size
    4. SPEED FROM THE SPORTS CAR - by "Calculus", pub 1951 by Floyd Clymer, 5"x8" approximate size (no Porsche content, but very cool piece)

    All books are completely intact, and in used, good condition. Any ideas as to their value?
    Looking forward to hearing from some of you...Thanks, I sincerely appreciate your time.

    Cheers

    While ur on that subject, does anyone have a scanned copy of the P-car mods booklet that the R Gruppe website refers to? I'd sure like to read up on that but can't find one anywhere.
