BMC Service Dept. Documents

[111Robin]

I found a ring binder at a show this weekend full of BMC service documents detailing all manner of changes/improvements/faults. It covers all BMC vehicles of the period therefore there are lots relating to the Mini (and 1100). It only has sections A (Engine) and B (electrical) but is full of what might be useful details and in particular dates of when certain changes were implemented. I've only had a quick scan through it and there are lots of interesting documents for future reference. These may be ten a penny but it's the first time I've found a full folder with index. Here is one example showing oil cooler fitment :

That’s a really nice find, I would be very pleased to come across them as well.

Hopefully they are super rare and worth a ton of money, TBH I have no idea …….

I would doubt it's worth anything other than of interest to like minded anoraks who might want to know when parts were changed or how common faults were advised to dealers on how to rectify. I'll thumb through it and if anything of interest jumps out I'll post it here.

Is there perhaps anything similar listed in Mark's collection of scanned BMC Documents Archive on the Mk1 Performance website?

I had a quick look before I posted and couldn't see anything.

I agree with Martins suggestion (above) Rob.

These old books always contain some really useful tid-bits of information. Or is it Tit-bits......, or am I thinking of that 60's under-the-pillow magazine that we used to peek at, after lights out at my boarding school.....?
