Gidad asked me to post his photos. This C2 looks pretty straight and fairly complete. The good ones are always on the other side of the country !

Go to Google maps, enter So. Rocky Dells Dr. Prescott, AZ. At the end of the cul-de-sac follow the long driveway all the way to the end and you'll see it sitting there.

Taigh
I need to come up with a cover for this parts manual.
I have a fuel servicing T.O. for the Biederman 7-1/2 tractor but would like to see yours to see if they are kind of printed the same way.
Can you send me a scan of the covers of T.O.'s you have.

Hi Treven,

Any way I could persuade you to do another copy for me in the UK?

I am just about to send a copy of a C-2 manual I have to Jeff - if he had a second copy he could forward it to me when he sends a copy of his parts copy over to me.

Cheers,
Tony

Hi Jeff-
If you have been to twinbeech.com, you should have seen the picture of my dad standing next to a federal C2. I have many more pictures and I promised Taigh I would scan some more. Now that I got a new scanner, I am starting on that. I was able to see his wrecker last fall and Taigh was (crazy) gracious enough to let me drive it.

I live in Golden Valley so I would like to see your project sometime. Tim

Hi All
I think we are up to 4 copies of this parts manual, I have it all on a disc if we need more.

Tim come out any time if this snow ever goes away.
Do you have a G692 ?

I'd really appreciate that, thanks.

My manual is the Maintenance one and is complete, Jeff needs the Parts catalog cover and first page.

Jeff & Tony,

Two copies of the manual are on the way to Jeff. They are punched for a 3 ring binder.

Hi Jeff-
No I do not have one--thought it would be a nifty screen name...

I developed an interest in the big truck after looking through some of my dad's pictures.

I'm really wondering about the snow.

Thanks very much Treven.

Interestingly, a set of original USAAF T.O.s which I was able to borrow were mounted in a proper USAAF-embossed ring binder (I think 4 hole), so I reckon this was the way the USAAF T.O.s were supplied.

Jeff- if you email me your mailing address I'll get this copy on the way.

EDIT: No - the originals are in fact 3 hole punched, so you've done it correctly!!

Hi guys,
I am also looking for copies of any and all manuals pertaining to the Federal C2 and Strerling DDS235 wreckers. If any of you have any additional copies available, please let me know.

Thank You,
Tommy Harris
