Default 427 Chassis Manual on eBay

Just saw it and thought I'd pass it along. Says it's an original.

Saw one of these at the swap meet at Mid America Ford and Shelby Nationals, in Tulsa, a couple weeks ago. Guy was asking $450. One of our club members is an expert and collector of Shelby literature, so I called him. He asked if the fold out pages folded out and down. The pages on the one I was looking at only folded out. He said that the manual was a re-print. I did not see any fold out pics on ebay, so be sure to check that with the seller before you pass over 9 Benjamins for it.

Mickmate is selling a nice reproduction of these now for a tiny fraction of that price. Hard to see spending that type of money without some good-as-gold proof of authenticity

You mean like this?

I won it on ebay for waaaay less than what is asked for the one in the auction link. However I wouldn't let it go for $900 as I probably will never have the chance to get an original one again

Yeah, I have an original 427 manual also and mine has the fold out and down page like yours. I also have one of Nicks repro's for my car. The original stays in my safe and is in wayyy better shape than the one on eBay.
