Sunbeam Specialties carries a Series I-IV Alpine & early '60s Rapier
workshop manual reproduction. It's well bound, and invaluable for working
on the early cars. You could probably locate an original, but who would
want
to put their greasy paws all over one?

Wonderful story! I especially like the part where she gets rid of the MG
in favore of the Series V Alpine.
