FERRARI 250 GT & 250 GT/E - A COMPILATION OF THREE FACTORY MANUALS
Author: Floyd Clymer
ISBN: 9781588502940
VP Book ID: 20181
Pages: 152
Dimensions: 8 1/4" x 10 3/4"
Description:
152 pages and more than 120 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This manual is a compilation of three factory manuals: (1) 250GT 'Directions for the Use and Upkeep' (Italian & English language) (2) 250GT 'Spare Parts Catalogue' (Italian) (3) 250GT/E 'Operating, Maintenance and Service Handbook' (English). Obviously, much of the information is also appropriate to other models in the 250 series, such as the 250GTL, 250SWB etc.
After we published Jim Riff's '250GT Service & Maintenance Notes' in 2006, we began to search for additional documentation relating to this series of Ferraris and we were fortunate enough to acquire copies of the three factory manuals included in this compilation. In addition, we also located copies of the factory 'Laycock Overdrive Service Manual for the 250GTE/330GT', plus additional Weber and Marelli documentation appropriate to the 250 series which has since been appended to Jim's 2006 publication to produce a revised and expanded 2024 edition which is available under ISBN 9781588500601.
Obviously, while there will be some cross-duplication of the information contained in this compilation and Jim Riff's manual, when used in conjunction with each other, they create the most comprehensive service, maintenance and overhaul manual available for the Ferrari 250 series of automobiles.
Caretakers and enthusiasts of these early Ferrari automobiles may also find ISBN 9781588502728 a 'Ferrari Handbook' to be of interest. This publication contains technical data and statistics for the majority of the 1948 to 1958 Ferrari road and race cars. It also includes 60 pages of component drawings, wiring diagrams, lubrication and brake schematics, exploded views etc. for those early models.
We encourage you to exercise caution when purchasing technical publications for your Ferrari as many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality, comb'bound photocopies that are scanned and printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned', 'used' or even 'refurbished'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years. However, VelocePress.com has been publishing reprints of motorcycle and automobile manuals since 2003 and our publications have earned excellent reviews worldwide so you can be assured you are purchasing a quality product...$34.95 USD
