Is there a Haynes manual for everything?
Weve been doing some work at a local airport in some of the private hangars. Whilst there the owners let us have a look around. Amongst the old aston
martin race cars, shelves stacked with spare jet engines for one of his jet planes and a couple of WW2 planes including a fully restored and working
Spitfire I noticed he had a rather large engine on an engine stand being worked on so I went over to have a look to see it was a spare merlin engine
for his spitfire... And what did he have sat on top of the engine?... Only a Haynes manual for the submarine spitfire! :-o There truly must be a
manual for everything

I reckon you'd be hard pressed to find something that doesn't fit... Iirc they do washing machines, body repair, I know they do man, woman
and babies..

I recall they didn't do one for our old Lancia Dedra's....not that I blame them, not enough demand and they would have all rotted away
before the ink was dry ;-)

I'm addicted to brake fluid, but I can stop anytime.

Don't do one for my last or current tin top, Scorpio 24V and now Lexus LS400. Yes I like barges...

Have you just discovered a secret weapon, details of which had never been released before? I remember the flying sub' in
"Voyage to the bottom of the sea" but never thought we
had them in WW2. No wonder we won!

The Spitfire manual is not really an actual manual, its a collection of interesting information and great pictures about the Spitfire.
Still a great book though, I bought one, but now in true form lent it to someone and can't remember who!
