'67 chev BelAir

Have a clean 67 belair...want to restore...trying to find a shop manual which gives the details...have checked the various parts stores (can't find anything older than '69)...to best of my knowledge, everything on car (other than tires, brakes, etc) is original...wish to keep it this way...can anyone help?

last car my Dad purchased, he died in '83, Mom kept it til '03 and let me have it just before she died...until 2 weeks ago, car had not been started since '96...cleaned the points, dropped in a new coil, fresh fuel, and the old girl went to purring like a kitten...lots of sentimental value...

any help on the book, or directions to good places for new door panels, etc will be greatly appreciated.

Can't say specifically, but "Hemming's Motor News" often has ads for older service, repair and assembly manuals. A friend found one for the '64 Catalina there.

Also keep an eye on eBay. I've seen various factory service and body manuals pop up in auctions from time to time. I bought a factory manual for my 1964 Bel Air from one of those companies that sell restoration parts for the older Chevy full size vehicles back in the '90s. I still see them advertised in these catalogs. Many of these companies advertise in Hemmings along with some of the hobbyist magazines like Car Craft, and Hot Rod.

Thanks for the reply, guys...just popped the hood and located the engine number...about to start research to see if it is the original...any suggestions?

Try Impala Bob's in Mesa,AZ. I have a 62' Bel Air post and they have been alot of help.

I suggest Amazon.com, you can find new and used copies, check these out, used for $0.95-$7.95!

Whole page search results for Chilton Auto Repair at the below link. You can add "Chevy to the search, or Chevrolet. Also try replacing Chilton with "Motors". They made good ones, too.
