eBay: 1983 Parts Catalog on microfiche (ends 21-Jan)

Buy it, sell it, negotiate, haggle, drag it out from under the workbench or behind the garage and make it someone else's problem!

Not a bad price, but I don't have a 'fiche viewer anymore. Besides, I have the 1985 paper catalog, which is pretty nice, and covers '81-84.

I don't suppose a high resolution scanner could make anything useful out of microfiche? Looks doubtful - pretty high magnification involved. Just curious if anybody had tried it. How often do parts catalogs for Maxima's come across Ebay?

Don't know about a scanner. Maybe a 2500dpi scanner might make something of it. Last time I did 'fiche, I had it printed, then scanned the results. It was a pain, and the printed copy wasn't that great either.

I've seen only two of the Parts Catalogs come across eBay in the last year; I bought one, and Glenlloyd just missed the other. I bought mine for cheap -- under $10 -- but now that I've got one, I'd gladly pay $40 for it.
