RIP The most important person in car repair history just passed away.

Anyway please give this thread a BUMP if you've ever used one.

wow... thought u were going to say scotty passed away

Chiltons

He jipped the hell out of me back in 1982

i still have the haynes manual for the 70 to 81 firebird laying around :)

Yikes I'm a subscriber and like to watch his stuff every now and then.

no but you might if you listen to him

JOHNNY CARSON USED TO MAKE JOKES ABOUT HIS MECHANIC...A MR. GOODSHAFT...I GUESS THAT THIS WAS NOT HIM....

RIP COOL DUDE...

I just watched a video on car brakes with him and now I find this.....lol.

WOW!

I have owned a few of those before, a used car owners bible I'd say.

Even if you don't work on your own car helps to talk to the mechanic to make them think you know something about your car so they don't rip you off.

Never mind I thought you meant Scotty.

me too. i feel the same way, saved me thousands of dollars. easy. every time I repaired it without having to buy a new car, right there is several thousand

they would buy a car and dismantle the whole car and put it back together as they wrote the manual.

i noticed i bought the other brands of manuals, the chilton and it was identical. not sure whaht's going on there, I thought plagarism,copyright laws were a thing

i had 1984 honda and toyota made a factory service manual that was better than the haynes. more expensive. usually used by auto repair dealers.

for some stupid reason they don't want to sell them to the general public.

or at least they stopped making them anywhere near as good, like they sold me one for my saturn, and it was complete shit, it was a joke. hand scribbled diagrams. I couldn't believe this was the official service manual from Saturn

I own several of his car books.

Damn, I liked that guy.
Chilton is a good car manual too.

Haynes Car Repair Manual

Mr. Haynes rocks and so does Judethz.

Thanks for sharing.

Rip Mr Haynes, you taught & helped me so much through the years from my Fs1e to my Fireblade - many thanks

I can not even count the number of these and chiltons I have bought over the years.

Thank you RIP

5* and pin.
I did not think this would make me so sad. The hours, days, weeks and years I spent with those books in my dirty greasy bloody hands.

BUMP AND PIN AND 5 STAH FO YA!

Entertaining video OP...I've got one of those books for a old BMW motorcycle...

Relied on him and a Chilton back when the kids were in diapers and diy car maintenance was a prerequisite.

RIP Mr. Haynes.

I've had one for pretty much every vehicle I've ever owned...and I'm 60+.

We should organize a nation wide honk your horn event, like the gun solute.

Hope they keep making his underwear.
