Well, what I was saying is that the wiring diagrams in the Service Manual
are better than the ones in the Assembly Manual. As far as buying both, it's
really up to you but it never hurts to have information and the books will
be among the least expensive parts of your restoration.

Kyle,
The wiring diagrams in the Assembly Manual are not nearly as good as the
schematics in the Service Manual. If you are specifically interested in
wiring, the Service Manual is a better choice IMO.
