Well my sight is getting really crappy and I hate tracking wiring down on a small sheet. Did I say hate it? It pays to work for an Engineering firm. My solution......

Nice.

I did the same thing. But all on one huge poster... 3.5 x 5 feet, along with some other references (fuse charts, images, and the like). It's on my garage wall. It's nice having a 42" plotter around!

I thought it would be cool to make them available for others, but I'm guessing there would be copyright trouble.

Nice! fortunately, the color schematics for the 73-74 are easier to read than the 70-72 but i'd like poster sized prints of those too, just the same!

Not sure if it would be a copyright infringement if you just give it away...

I did the same thing with the 914 blueprint drawing, it turned out to be about 6 feet long or so. Plotters rule!

I hate electricity. You cannot see it and sometimes it really bites you. Put me on the list for a poster sized schematic. MSG L

Paul what did you use as the source document? Resolution looks really good.

Actually, I found the image on the internet. I now have a set of factory manuals and I may try a good scanner and see if I can get it even better.

If anyone wants the images (jpeg), I'll e-mail them. It's large though
