206 vs. 246 manual

The owner of early "L" series Dino 246GT (built in August 1970)
wants to know if my 206 manual will work for his car. Any thoughts?

I believe the next Dino manual produced after this one is #36/70 which is for cars with S/N 1118 and later, is that correct?

Hello Morry,

No, the 206 manual is only for the 206, and so on...

If you would not mind, I have a mint "L" manual that I would be willing to sell.
If he is interested, please have him pm me.
Thank you.

Regards, Alberto

 

I believe there was a 206 manual with an L-Series supplement for early L-Series.

The early 246 "manual" is a 206 manual with a pocket in the front cover for the 246 updates.

 

Learn a new one everyday on f-chat. I am impressed by the wealth of knowledge!!!!
Up to what chassis # did that apply?

The technically correct answer woul dbe the chassis # they ran out of them and opened up the new box of freshly printed manuals.

 

Or Ferrari UK, had them sent with the horses...

 

I had the 206 manual with the supplement when I had my L-Series *0474*. The early L-Series up to chassis *0508*(I am going from memory) would have had this manual due to these early cars having many 206 parts such as gearbox and suspension plus it makes sense Ferrari didn't have a new manual yet just for the 246. I still have 2 later L-Series manuals(one mint and one slightly used).

Absolutely correct, early L-series Dino had the 206 manual with the 246 supplement.
The L-series manual print no. 36/70, as the number says, was printed in 1970, so much later than L-series production start in March 1969!
