From 1938 until 2003, more than 21 million Beetles equipped with an air-cooled rear-mounted engine were produced.If you have any interest in reviving your old VW, or perhaps are researching the purchase of one, this handy guide will cover all the bases in bringing that old air-cooled powerplant back to life.Pages : 144Size : 8.5 X 11 (inches)Format : Paperback / softbackIllustrations : 584 color photosPublisher : CarTechISBN : 9781613254332Product Code : SA221
