I just ordered these on EBay. they are from a GM dealership and have the parts diagrams and numbers for 56-63 trucks.

Chevrolet Truck Parts Catalog 1956-57 Chevrolet Truck Parts Catalog 1956-57
Chevrolet Truck Parts Catalog 1955 (2nd Series) -1963


I would like to share them with others, how can I get them scanned and made available without getting in trouble for any potential copyright issues?

I think Grigg was saying that is a resource to possibly get them scanned (or at least shared!)

Could also ask Keith how he does it, or if he is interested in your manuals, and he'd know about copyright issues.

bottom of his home page, he states

" Always Looking For and In Need of More Manuals

If you have any Pre-1960 Used Chevrolet or related Manuals or Materials not listed here and would like to donate them or can scan the pages for this site , please contact me. Anyone who donates any material will be credited on the site that contains the data. If a manual is donated by a business, I can include a web site link to their site."

Keith gets as many done as he can. I know when he first started we wondered about the copyright stuff ... but he must have that figured out AND we figured HE can do all that and we will just send folks his way. Works great for us, and perhaps will keep us out of any trouble.

danz ... if you are able to scan them, I think that would be a big help to him. You could probably send it all on a thumb drive. But I don't know. Contact him. He's a super guy and as big as the site is, with so much material and other stuff going on, I'm sure he has his hands full. When he had his other job, he had extra down time when he could do all the scanning and uploading.

That is very generous of you to share your stuff. It will get the most use from Keith's site. Me thinks.

Thanks for thinking of us!

I think Chevrolet is on our side, while researching my change to 5.38 gears in my 42 COE I searched by part number and came across the whole page of the parts from Chevrolet/GM Historical. Couldn't access the whole book, just the one page. Helped with my reverse engineering.
Chevrolet wants their trucks on the road!

Yes, we have found the GM Heritage Center has finally turned the lights on. If anyone could reign in all this data, it would be them (GM).

Perhaps they have figured out that we are their best advertisement out there ... still running after all these years.
