Hey Sean...
What you have there is an original factory manual. Some of the Haynes
graphics and references come from this, but they are quite different
versions of manuals.
I have several, one I believe is identical to yours. On the first page it
indicates:
"Quote Part No. AKD3259D when ordering this publication". It's dated '65.
Another I have is AKD3259F, and it's published in '68.
I also have originbal workshop maunals for 1970 Sprite/Midget, ZA/ZB
Magnette - plus original parts manuals for the Magnette and my MGBs. They've
become very helpful references.
Cheers!
