My school library is giving away some old reference books.
Included are some Chilton repair manuals (domestics too, but I'm focused on the relevant Volvo books). I checked the tables of contents, and these all contain Volvo guides.
These are the type of Chilton's I've seen mechanics pull off the shelf, not the paperback model-specific type.

There are:
Import Car repair manual: 1972-1977
"Chilton's Import car repair manual: 1976-1983
Import car repair manual: 1987-1991 (I may take this for myself)
"foreign car repair manual" Not dated, but "including the [Volvo] 164"

If anyone's interested, let me know ASAP. Email me through the site, or find my phone number in my profile and text/call me.

I'll see what it costs to mail them, and may ask for whatever the media mail rate comes out to be. They're pretty durn heavy, and I'm on a student budget.

If they are in decent condition you should take them.

One way to get an approximate value is to go to the Barnes & Noble site and do a search for a used book - you can see what they sell for.

If you post the proper titles on in the classified ads, I'll bet you find a buyer.

I always check at least two books when I do a repair.

You can send them BOOK RATE, which is quite reasonable.
