Any one sell a factory assembly manual for a 1970 Cuda? I know there is a lot for Chevy's and Fords . But I have never seen one for Cuda's .

I have the hard copy of the 1970 barracuda manual and its about 3 inches thick.   :rubeyes:

I have asked and looked for the same thing. Trying to find an equivalent to a GM AIM. Assembly Instruction Manual. The only manuals I have found are separate manuals for each build section. I.e. engine manual, chassis manual etc. I bought them for my 69 Charger.

If you're doing a full ground up restoration and you've had the shell of the car painted, all the components restored, and you're ready to reassemble....

There is no hard fast order that it MUST be assembled in, most just boils down to common sense and being able to imagine the final product. There are some areas or items that should go in a "preferred order" for example: It's easier to mount the complete dash assembly before the windshield is installed, but it's not a "must" in an E Body. Don't install the seats before you install the carpet  :alan2cents: :D

A lot of us on here have done full assemblies and have even posted complete start to finish assembly threads that you give you some idea of the basic order, and always don't be afraid to ask questions first before doing something backwards or out of order... :grouphug:

No , I have that manual, So I guess no one has a Factory assembly manual. That's the manual Plymouth used to assemble the Cuda at the factory .

They were broken down to major assemblies.  Chrysler Imperial Plymouth had a Body Service Manual for instance which included sheet metal, glass, trim, body electrical, body and frame alignment, sealing, etc.  More geared to maintenance and repair than original assembly but still very useful.  I have the '72 copy.

Thank you Ply64post, I did not know these manuals which seem very complete and specific to E body. I will be able to complete my library.
