Hello Wally,

Welcome here on MLU!

If you have a chance to buy any volume of the AEDB Design Records, I would not pass up on the opportunity. Although all volumes are available as scans and can be printed out, having an original manual is so much better.

Which of these volumes are you referring to?

Volume 1 - General and Index;
Volume 2 - Armoured Vehicles (other than tanks);
Volume 3 - Tanks and Tank Type Vehicles;
Volume 4 - Self-propelled Mechanical Transport Type Vehicles;
Volume 5 - Bodies and Non-technical Vehicles;
Volume 6 - Technical Vehicles; Volume 7 - Trailers;
Volume 8 - Mud and Snow Vehicles

Please share the info of any volumes for sale if you can.
