Beaumont parts catalogue differences?
Permalink  

I noticed the other day that my 2 parts books are much different thickness. At a glance, they appear to have similar information though.

The silly thing is, the thick one seems to have less diagrams than the thin one.

Anyone else have both? I don't feel like going page by page to see why the big difference.

I don't have both but if you send me the blue one I will. biggrin
I am not sure about the pictures but some of the part numbers in the 1972 revision are superceded or N/A by that time which makes finding the correct parts difficult. You see some parts manuals being sold in a reprint as is the case with the red manual which limits the majority of the public to that information. 
 Am I preaching to a parts guy? doh.gif

Yeah, I'm a parts guy but short of going page by page, I can't see much of a difference and I wondered if anyone else has dealt with this. I realize the red one is much more common. I forgot I had the other one till a short time ago when I stumbled on it.

There "shouldn't" have been a lot discontinued in 72 as the oldest one was only 8 then.

I keep trying to buy one of these on e-pay. For some reason the seller won't let me have it for $20.55.
I will be trying to find one at the Red Deer swap meet on the 25th.

You mean you won it for 20.55 and he won't ship it to you? Or what do you mean?

I just mean my bid doesn't meet his reserve. Nothing against the seller, I just haven't bid any higher. I know I will end up paying more, but I will be happy to see the item in person at the swap meet.
