Use the program called "gt3vol" from
http://ps23dformat.wikispaces.com/file/view/gt3vol.zip
To extract the large .VOL file from Gran Turismo 3

Use the program called offzip from:
aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz.htm
and use it to extract a file from the Day/Eve/Night subfolder in the "Car" folder.
You run offzip from the commandline which in Windows Vista is under the start menu then 
accessories then command prompt.
For example if I had offzip.exe in the folder G:\offzip and I had a car file called am0006 in the folder G:\Model
and I wanted to extract in the folder G:\GT3Extracted
then in the command prompt I would enter:
G:\offzip\offzip.exe -a -z -15 G:\model\am0006 G:\GT3Extracted -0
then press enter, and the program should extract a file and put it in the folder which for me is
G:\GT3Extracted

Then open up a new microsoft word document press select all and make the font size 6, and try to make
the margins as small as possible to avoid crashing Microsoft word. Also if you can truly disable the automatic spellchecker redlines

disable at least in 2007)

Then right click and press paste.
