Most of content is about split screen vans (as usual), and only a small amount on Bay windows and Vanagons. There is a fairly comprehensive history and an interesting chapter all about camper conversions. It is interesting to read a book devoted to buses for a change but some of the info is wrong and most of the other stuff (engine tuning, etc) is nothing new. > >P.S.

I'll check at home, but I don't remember any Vanagon special. Volksworld are strictly air-cooled only, and even then features about Bays and Vanagons are few and far between. Andy E.
