Hi Kerry,
Like most lego sets the early technic sets contained rare if not unique pieces.
Even if you had spares of these pieces, the sets are worth far more with
original instructions than with scans. These sets are collector items,
originality is most important. In some cases the original instructions are as
valuable as the pieces.
