It's true that Bob's sermons are basically aircooled VW related, but like Muir's Idiot Guide they also contain a lot of wisdom applicable to VW's in general. I'm keeping a copy for myself, even though my daily driver's a wasserboxer. But speaking of manuals for watercooled vans, one of the items I have coming in is a new glovebox repair manual for watercooled Vanagons, printed by Peter Russek in England, for $16.95. It's on the members page, http://www.busdepot.com/members.htm - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot http://www.busdepot.com |
