Five Stars very comprehensive manual. Jason Moore said Big Book Too. This was an expensive acquisition, but worth its weight in gold for the home mechanic. I needed it for the wiring diagrams, as the garbage Haynes Manual's wiring diagrams are terrible. So far everything I need to know is in it.. The bible of swingaxle VW maintenance Nicholas Gomez If you have a swingaxle Beetle then this book is where you get to learn all the factory methods of maintenance. Every step has pictures and clear instructions for you to follow. Very expensive. Buy this only if you are totally obsessed with VW maintenance. A lot of the special factory tools are almost impossible to find and this dissapointed me quite a bit. As it does not cover later engines, transmissions, etc. it would be helpful to have other manuals and books to help you with your VW restorati
