Default Owners Manual

Does anyone know if they are reproducing owner's manuals for Canadian cars.
I found a few photos and thought I would quickly create the cover. It is not exact copy. I may try and get an original and make a good copy of it.

I've never seen any reproductions for Canadian cars.

Attached are pics of the Canadian manuals for 70/71/72. Not sure how these differ from US manuals as I've never looked at any.

Thanks mrennie. Are they photos you have found or do you own them? If so are you open to selling the 1970 manual?

They are manuals I collected from scrapped cars or cars parked in fields back in the late 80's when I was looking for parts for my 72 Lemans.

Unfortunately, not for sale (I need a manual for my car!)

I managed to find a copy of a Canadian owners manual. It has a water stain on the cover but all the pages are there and in perfect condition. I scanned the cover and photoshoped the the water stain out and here is the result. I have the front and back cover in a hi-res pdf file that could be printed and used to cover a US printing to simulate the Canadian version if someone is looking for one.

I actually found and purchased a second manual in mint condition complete with all the warranty/dealer paperwork and protect-o-plate. Even has the original clear plastic pouch that it originally came with. Unfortunately its not originally from my car.
