I stumbled across some old parts manuals for dodge / Chrysler stuff from back in the 1940s through to the late 1950s. Anyone know if they have value or are they fireplace log material.

I can't speak of cars / trucks, other than my own interest, and I dont have anything that old. I did find a manual for my '79 Scottsdale - cheap enough. I once sold a WWI US Military rifle and got almost a quarter of the price more for a minty, rare manual. If they are yours, post for sale and see what the traffic will bear.

Yes, they are mine, they have been sitting on a shelf for years and completely forgotten. some are in good condition considering that they are almost 80 years old. One though is missing its cover completely and it is the repair manual and parts for the old flat head industrial engine.
Any suggestion where I should start for "asking price?"

To the right person they are valuable, to most people they are worthless. Your local car club or on the web would be a good places to sell them.
As for value, most manuals go for 50 to 100 dollars to the right buyer.
