Hello all,
I recently purchase a SWB S3 with a red 186 motor conversion. Going to need a lot of work but I got the landy for $300.00 otherwise the guy was going to scrap it. 
Its a 1979 S3 chassis rear cross member gone, firewall badly rusted, RH door is badly rusted. apart from the Lyken the body panels are in good shape as well as the inside.
I have searched this forum high and low and could have missed it but I was looking for a workshop manual for a 186 - would anyone have one they could share. Thanks in advance
Cheers Kimberley Attwell
