Product Description

Beetles are back! Now it's time to take a second look at the huggable new bug's older sibling. "Vintage Volkswagens" is a pictorial tribute to the unique design and timeless form of the classic VWs: Beetles, Karmann Ghias, Microbuses, Hebmullers, Cabriolets--they're all here. Every last quirky detail is lovingly documented, from the knobby little turn signals to the "autoblumenvase"--the "original" flower vase on the dashboard. Complete with authentic 1950s sales brochures, ads, and a special appendix of captions detailing everything from model numbers to body color--and now reissued with a new cover--this is the perfect book for the Volkswagen aficionado and everyone else who appreciates the evolution of a classic. "Vintage Volkswagens": Readers wanted.

Customer Reviews

Excellent photographs of early volkswagens
This is a pictorial book, showing various vintage models of volkswagens, and various accessories. The photography is excellent, as is the quality of the book. The only downside is that the text for each photograph is listed at the back of the book, making reference rather akward. Definitely a book worth getting if vintage volkswagens are your thing!
