The first AIM I purchased for my 1960 was very poor quality. Most pages were hard to read, and all were 8 1/2 x 11 size. I didn't know any better. I later found a better copy with the original 11 x 17 fold-out pages still full sized. First picture below is a scan from my current 1960 AIM. Night and day difference in usability with the new one I got versus the one I original bought.
Now to my problem, I purchased an AIM for my 1966 and it is not very useful many time when trying to identify details of how something is supposed to go together. The reproduction quality seem to be good and dark. But, the images and art work seems to be of a much lower quality than the 1960. The details are just not as crisp and clean as the 1960.
Are the original GM C2 AIMs just that much of a lesser quality that the earlier C1 AIMs?
Were all the C2 pages 8 1/2 x 11, the one I have certainly does not have any fold-out pages?
Are there better copies of the 66 AIM to be had, or do all the reproductions come from one source?
Thanks,
Don
