Original VW Beetle by Laurence Meredith
The Beetle is unique. Many cars are more powerful, more comfortable, more economical and better suited to modern driving conditions, but without exception, none holds the same fascination as the Beetle. Robust engineering, classless status and depth of character made the Beetle one of the world's biggest-selling cars. And, just like the million people who bought new Beetles, today's classic car enthusiasts are taking these individualistic cars to their hearts in ever-increasing numbers all over the world. This addition to the "Original" restoration series documents and illustrates all the European-built production variants of the car from 1945 to 1980. The text is accompanied by photographs showing factory authenticity and every significant permutation of Beetle specification in detail.Laurence Meredith has written some 38 books, 36 of them about cars and motor racing.
