Vauxhall Velox and Cresta PA 1957-1960 Body Service Training Manual | PDF Download

This is the Body volume (TS.408) of Vauxhall’s five-part Service Training Manual for the Series PA, covering the Cresta (PAD) and the Velox (PAS).

Vauxhall’s own training department wrote it for dealer bodyshops and trim shops. If you’re stripping a door, replacing a window winder, re-trimming the interior or cutting out rusty panels, this shows how the factory expected it to be done. The drawings are clear, the steps run in order, and each section opens with its own index.
