Hello All,
I'm about to graduate from my Maserati 3500 GT to a mid to late '50s 250 GT PF, Boano, or Elena. I'm just wondering if there is any repro literature and repair manuals available?
Many Thanks, RF.

Fred, here are a few that I know of; maybe others can chime in with more resources. But, also there are some knowlededgeable people here, like our own Dyke Ridgely and Tom Yang that can help with particular issues, etc.

Hi,
already replied on fchat.
In addition to the already mentioned material by John above and on fchat by Dyke and Chris I found the following very helpfull for the overhaul of my outside plug engine:
- 250 Gte Uso et Manutenzione
This is a collection of different material from different sources. You will find it to download or as a hardcopy cheaply
- official 330 workshop manual
The 330 and 275 had official workshop manuals which are usefull to understand how things were done.
Just be carefull with all english translations. They very often contain severe faults, e.g. on torque settings, timing or oil pressure.
Cheers
Christopher

Welcome to the fold! As you're discovering, there isn't a lot of stuff out there, but we all have small collection manuals and notes. If you run into anything specific, let us know and we'll try to point you in the right direction!
