Post by mistered1966 »

Looking for the best manual for getting working on my project Bug. Lots of little things to do and I'm looking forward to getting started. Any tips?

I can't help you with restoration manuals per se, but for the best shop manual get the Bentley Volkswagen 1200 Service Manual 1961-1965 (despite the fact that the car is a '66.)

I have ordered two texts from Amazon:

How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/156691 ... ss_product

How to Restore Volkswagen Beetle

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/190370 ... ss_product

I'll let you know how they work out. Looks like they're written in plain English with pictures and step-by-step instructions.
