Hi Folks,



Which books are better than "How to Rebuild Your Volkswagen Air-Cooled Engine, by Tom Wilson"? My original copy has gone missing, so before I order another, I'd like to hear if there are better alternatives.



Thanks!

I use: the Robert Haynes Beetle manual for my 1973 VW Beetle. the Official VW Owners Service Manual by Robert Bently - not sure of actual title. The How To Keep Your VW Alive book by John Muir a Beetle manual by Clymer the Bug Me videos by Rick Higgins I also have the Chilton manuals but don't use them much. I would have to say I use the Robert Haynes Beetle manual, the Robert Bently manual and the Bug Me Videos the most. I hope this helps! jp73vwbttl
