Default Illustrated Chases and Body Catalogs

Help!!
I’m looking for a set of illustrated chases and body catalogs that were published prior to the 20 & 20A units with an 1983 effective date.
I do not know the # of the previous units. Any help would be appreciated

I have one that says To 1975 - Effective Date 1979
It has a 20 at bottom of cover.

Others I have are missing the covers.

You may want to explain what 20 and 20A units means, and what specific make/model/year car the manuals are for. It may help your search.

Catalogues were published by GM for all model lines. These units were used by dealerships for part illustration and part #s. One catalogue for #s & one catalogue for illustration. These were compiled approximately every 3 or 4 years that would show new model part #s and superseded part #s. The # 20 issue was for part #s and the #20A issue was for illustration, with an effective date of 1983. I am looking for the previous issues with an effective date prior to 1983. I do not know what those issue #s are. The 20 and 20A were Pontiac specific.

Forgive these fat old fingers for keyboard mistakes.

There are 2 catalogs, one is Illustrations and the other is Part Numbers.
The 20A is Illus. I think and 20 is Part Numbers. They are both big, with Illus bigger.

I have a pdf of the Effective 1979 books.
And a real copy with no cover.
Have a 1976 to 1981 Illust. book



Not for sale though.

I think you can buy them from ebay usually.
