Good Source - Especially Pictures! by thowell (Florida) 5 Stars
November 14, 2008
While the writing can get a bit confusing at times (it has a lot of the english style words in it), this is a pretty good source for your beetle restoration. The pictures themselves are worth the price! A lot of times, I've found when restoring a car, it's MUCH easier to look at pictures rather than try to decipher what is written.
I would recommend this book

Review by A. H. Rowley (El Cajon, California, United States) 4 Stars
March 18, 2008
Very nice text for working/restoring a Volkswagen Beetle, and even other air cooled relatives (mechanicals, headliner, door overhaul, and others). It is almost full color, which is a treat. The only problems I have with it is it is a soft cover (can get damaged easier) and some aspects are left to the experts. Oh, and it is in British English, which is not really a problem, and makes the text more interesting. ;-)
