VW Beetle: The New Custom Handbook (3) - The VW Beetle: The New Custom Handbook wasn't for me.

Somewhat helpful (4) - Mostly pretty pictures of bugs but it gave me some great ideas on what I can do to mine. There is very limited information on how to actually customize anything but there is a lot of information about what can be done. For example: It gives you all the information on which bumpers look great with each style of VW but it will not tell you what you would need to do to install one.

very interesting book - not too deep on each model (4) - I would recommend this book to anyone trying to define its preference on a beetle style.

A lot to think about. (5) - This book will definitley get the creative juices flowing when you are trying to decide how you want your beetle restoration to turn out. It covers all the popular "looks", from the ageless Cal-look to the modern german look, as well as buggies, bajas and replicas.

A definite must have for a beetle fan.
