"This Chrysler "65" Instruction Book is an original factory-issued owner's manual produced by the Chrysler Sales Corporation, Detroit, and represents an important piece of late-1920s American automotive history. Issued as the Second Edition in August 1928, it was designed specifically for owners of the Chrysler Model 65, providing authoritative guidance on operation, care, and maintenance at a time when motoring was becoming both more sophisticated and more widely accessible. The manual reflects Chrysler's emphasis on engineering precision and owner education during the marque's formative years, bridging the gap between early motoring and the modern automobile.
The volume is well illustrated throughout with technical diagrams, specifications, and practical instructions covering lubrication, inspection, seasonal care, and mechanical systems, culminating in a large fold-out lubrication chart and chassis diagram, here present and in excellent condition, a key point of desirability for collectors. As a genuine period publication rather than a later reprint, this manual offers both historical insight and visual appeal, making it an especially attractive survival from the brass-to-vintage transition era of American cars. This piece would particularly appeal to Chrysler restorers, collectors of early automotive literature, and enthusiasts of pre-war American motoring history."
