Customer Review: This is an excellent resource on how to make air cooled vw engines reliable, and go faster. I've been wrenching on bugs and buses for years, and if you can only afford one resource (besides the factory manual) this is the one.
Customer Review: If I were seventeen again way back in 1984 when this book was written I surely would have found this to be a complete and helpful reference.
