Beetles and Transporters were such successful vehicles that some 25 million were built, which means that getting spares shouldn’t be a problem for the DIY restorer. This book, with nearly 900 illustrations, describes how to renovate chassis and bodywork, including the renewal of major panels and repainting; how to renovate interiors; give new life to mechanical and electrical components; and use the Beetle as the basis for a ‘special’ or kit car. It also details the history of the marque, and lists production modifications.
