We specialize in automobile literature, manuals and books printed by the Ford Motor Company and its Lincoln-Mercury
Division for the purpose of selling or repairing their cars. These are the best publications you can find because the factory itself
printed them for your specific automobile. The different kinds of automotive literature published specifically for Mercury cars are
described below.

|
Sales Literature
|
Mercury created, designed and published various kinds of automobile sales literature
to hand out to the general public. These are usually in color, contain large pictures of the various exteriors and interiors
available and have a general discussion of options. Sales Literature is useful for restoration details and fun to own and
collect to show along with your automobile. The different kinds of sales literature available include brochures, folders, press
releases,sales bulletins, post cards and annual reports.

Parts Books
|
The Ford Motor Company compiled and published large, comprehensive Parts Books which
cover Mercurys and Lincolns, only. Parts Books have both a text and an illustration section, and cover every single part in
your automobile. They feature blow up illustrations of the part, along with the part name, number and description. Parts
illustrations show subassemblies and give a great deal of information for reassembling your car, along with identifying
the proper parts for it. Equipped with this book, you will no longer have to put up with parts vendors selling you the wrong part.

Dealer Albums
|
Generally, only once a year the Lincoln-Mercury Division would sell to each of its dealers one
Data Book and Color/ Upholstery Album for the Mercurys for that specific model year. These automobile books, collectively called
"Dealer Albums" were never given to the general public. Moreover, many were thrown out by thoughtless dealers to make
space for the next model year. They are therefore rare, hard to find, and true collector's items. The Data Books are usually profusely
illustrated with interior, exterior, options and accessory choices. The Color and Upholstery Albums have swatches of the actual upholstery
and paint colors available at that time. They also include the code numbers. |

|
Owners Manuals
|
These are the glove box booklets that give consumers basic information about the operation
and maintenance of their automobiles. They give the Mercury owner a general idea of how to operate the various Mercury features
and accessories.

Shop Manuals
|
The Lincoln-Mercury Division designed and printed Shop Manuals (also called Service Manuals
or Repair Manuals) with the detail and specifics necessary to effectively maintain and repair their automobiles. These Manuals contain
the most complete information available for Mercurys. There are engine, transmission, drive line, brakes & suspension, electrical,
exhaust sections and much more. Shop/Service Manuals are essentially "how to fix it" books, with detailed pictures, diagrams,
symptoms, tests, etc. If you own a Mercury and want to work on it yourself, this is the only Shop/Service Manual you will need.

Wiring Diagrams
|
Ford Motor Company and its Lincoln-Mercury Division usually published the comprehensive
wiring diagrams for its automobiles separately from its shop manuals. Generally, each Mercury model has its own wiring diagrams, separate
from those for the other models. These illustrate, in diagram form, the various circuits and wiring components.

Paint Chips
|
These are actual paint samples showing customers the colors available for their
automobiles in that model year. They are usually the size of a large postage stamp and give the color codes along with the color.
These are very useful in restoring cars, because they help you to find the exact color and code number for your specific model.

Service Bulletins
|
Ford published Service Bulletins to deal with specific automobile repair and maintenance
issues as they arose in order to update their Mercury, Lincoln and Ford Shop/Service Manxuals. Service bulletins are usually
detailed and specific as to one or two problems that were not known at the time the Shop/Service Manual was published. They
contain a wealth of information as to these problems. |
|
We carry a very large inventory of automobile manuals initially published by
the factory. Some of these are the original publications, some are reprints of the originals. Some show heavy use and others are new or nearly
new. Many of these items are difficult to find and our supply of each item may be limited. Our inventory is therefore highly specialized.
