The manual is a good clean, apparently unused condition and the only reason that I have listed it as used is that someone has added a filing reference to the front cover.
This is a genuine Motor Industry Repair Research Center (Thatcham) Guide to body repairs. It is produced for professional body repairs by the insurance industry and not available for general sale . There are a number of guides for different models that are issued as new models come out - some of which I have listed /will be listing on Ebay.
This covers the Proton Aeroback and 4 door models 1989 to 1996. It is based on the GL and also covers the GLS,and SE models in all engine sizes. It contains all the detailed information necessary to make approved and safe body repairs.
It contains exploded diagrams of body panel assemblies and details of removal and reassembly (including factory weld positions and recommended repair joint weld positions). Where part panels are to be fitted it provides details of approved cut positions.
Technical data includes body alignment measurements and repair time schedules (useful for costing the repair even if you are not doing it yourself).
It consists of 47 pages (in two manuals the first covering the Aerodeck and the second the differences for the 4 door) and in detail covers:
