I need a FSM for our 71 RR.

There is a big difference in the clarity between my original 69 FSM and the 2 repro 70s I have for the Charger.

Any experiences?

Thanks, Joe

I didn't realize they were out there, wish I didn't buy the two 70 repros now.

Thanks...Joe

Picture reproduction was darker and with less definition
making it more difficult to see what the text was referring to.

Text was OK but sometimes you really need clear pictures.

Ya check out ebay, one for a 71 or a 72 will either be on there or pop up sometime. I've bought a few used ones, worst I had to do was retape the spine with some packing tape.

One of the most important tools to obtain for our rides. With out it you won't be able to fully replace, repair or install just about everything on the vehicle. Here is a site to help you out as well...

I bought all of ours at swap meets.The most was like 30 bucks for the 62 and that was because it was like new.Usually swap meets are the best for the best prices.I bought 3 or 4 at Carlisle a few years back.Rocky

That's very true Rocky. And yet those are the same ones that seem to repeatedly ask questions about this or that. Then when asked if they have a FSM the first word out of their mouths is "NO". Just boggles the mind some times....
