DAF 750 and Daffodil 1962-1967 Service and Repair Manual | PDF Download
The DAF 750, sold in Europe as the Daffodil, is the little Dutch car with no gearbox.. A two cylinder air-cooled engine sits at the front, and a pair of rubber belts carry the power to the rear wheels through pulleys that change size as you drive. It’s a design nobody else used, and it’s rarely covered in print.
This guide takes the car apart and puts it back together: engine removal, a full strip down and rebuild of the engine, and servicing of the belt drive that does the job of a gearbox. It also has the electrical, fuel and steering details, wiring diagram and full specifications. It’s a short guide with valuable data, covering the items listed below.
