Got a new book in the mail today, VW Repair and Tune up Guide by Harold T Glenn. It's the 4th printing from 1966 and was just a couple of dollars on eBay. Some pretty good info in there and has a decent troubleshooting section like Muirs book. Great reference, will probably live in my Ghia once it's on the road again. _________________ '79 Westy FI/AC/Auto

I have a small collection of VW repair books, and this is one I hadn't heard of. Just bought it on Amazon for $2.78 plus shipping. It was the 7th printing. _________________ ----------------------

That's a very nice "Happy Father's Day to Myself" present that you bought for you. |

Ha, yes it was. Best one was getting my son home in one piece from Afghanistan earlier this week. _________________ ----------------------

Hi I remember a friend having this book. Must have been a later edition (1977?). It was a paperback.
Never read it (quick flick) but he swore by it ... These were the days (late 70s - early 80s) before the Muir book made its splash in Oz. |
