Darbone85737 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Posted September 15, 2014 I have the service manual for my car but is there a parts manual available? Not necessarily for parts numbers but most parts books show an exploded view of assemblies that is helpful in working on cars and motocycles Quote
desoto1939 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Posted September 15, 2014 Yes every year has a parts manual. You can get reproductions of the originals that are photo copies of the originals. You do not need an original a photo copy is perfect fpor our usage. Even when showing a car or truck at an AACA or NAtional event does not get you any extra points. The parts manual is only a reference point incase the jusge is questioning a part that is installed onthe car or truck. Check onthe bay for a parts book for your car or truck, also sometime you can find them at local swap meets. The if you have a scanner then scan the various pages so you will always have a saved copy for future use. Rich HArtung Desoto1939@aol.com Quote

Dodgeb4ya Posted September 15, 2014 Report Posted September 15, 2014 I'd just buy this....http://www.ebay.com/itm/1949-PLYMOUTH-PARTS-CATALOG-ORIGINAL-P17-P18-BOOK-/161421697091?pt=Motors_Manuals_Literature&hash=item25957ba043&vxp=mtr Quote
ChrisRice Posted September 15, 2014 Report Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) If a digital version is ok, i can give you a link to one. Nevermind, I dont have one for 1949. Edited September 15, 2014 by ChrisRice Quote
Darbone85737 Posted September 15, 2014 Author Report Posted September 15, 2014 Thanks. Reproductions would be fine for my purpose (use in the garage).. I believe I did ask either Bernbaum or Roberts for the book but they didn't have one. I'll check again Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted September 15, 2014 Report Posted September 15, 2014 I don't think a parts list is reproduced for the 1949 plymouth. There is not much demand for a 1949 plymouth parts list BTW.... a specific one year only list!. Is $47.50 too much? They don't show up often. Quote
DJ194950 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Posted September 15, 2014 I don't think a parts list is reproduced for the 1949 plymouth. There is not much demand for a 1949 plymouth parts list BTW.... a specific one year only list!. Is $47.50 too much? They don't show up often. A websearch showed one more for $139! Original! Also a reprint for $50 +4 shipping. In a way I'd prefer the reprint as it's new heavier paper than the Original I have. Flimsy old paper. I not sure you will get all the more detailed pics you think will be in it. Not many at all. Found many more pics. in a 50 Mopar parts book. Also online for around $50. Could not find an equivalent 49 Mopar parts manuel. Consulted both on a 50 Suburban with 49 front sheet metal and 50 Ply. 4 dr. stock. Use the 50 book more often as most 49-50 mechanical parts are the same and Some other Mopars. Up to you and your wallet. DJ Quote
Darbone85737 Posted September 15, 2014 Author Report Posted September 15, 2014 wound up getting the one on Ebay. Would have preferred a reproduction on new paper as I actually use these things and the old books are kind of fragile. Thanks for the help L. Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted September 16, 2014 Report Posted September 16, 2014 That one in the link above looks like the same type information as in my 46-48 Parts Manual.....with exploded views and how many fasterners something will require, etc. They are handy books to me. I see the same seller had my model book listed at $97......sure glad I bought years ago for probably $25 or so. Those books do not tell Everything......but cover most of it. Good luck on work on your car. Quote
