The original design was inspired by the flatbed vehicles used in the Wolfsburg factory. After initial problems with the cars were solved production of the Kombi and Panel Van began in 1950. Official variations began in the early 1950's and the Type 2 came in almost any shape a buyer wanted. To keep up with demand a new factory was opened in Hanover in 1956 and the millionth type 2 was produced in 1962. By the end of production in 1967 nearly 2 million had been built. This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, technical and specification data, touring, variations.
Complicated chores, such as adjusting the carburetor after a rebuild or troubleshooting the fuel injection system, are described with a thoroughness that will permit any person with tools and a little know-how to keep a VW Dasher running through the years. Wiring diagrams are given for every Dasher model, with steps for performing electrical tests. You'll find many troubleshooting tables for the cooling system, the clutch, the starting system, both the early and late types of automatic transmissions -- and much more.

This manual covers all U.S. and Canadian gasoline and diesel engine models of Volkswagen New Beetle from 1998 to 2000.
From the ruins of the Third Reich in Germany emerged one of the most instantly recognizable vehicles of the second half of the 20th century: the Volkswagen Transporter. With origins often attributed to a sketch produced by the flamboyant Dutchman Ben Pon, the reality is that the Transporter was the result of plans developed for Heinz Nordhoff, the highly talented if individualistic Director General of Volkswagen from 1948 until 1968.
Launched in 1949, the Transporter was designed to provide the company with a second model to run alongside the equally recognizable Beetle as a means of generating income. It was "designed for town and country, short and long distances, autobahns and field tracks, goods and passengers, retail and industry" and as such was to prove readily adaptable to a whole range of forms, including the camper van.
Manufactured for almost 20 years in Germany and until 1975 in Brazil, the first generation Transporter achieved peak production in its homeland in 1964 when more than 187,000 were built. In all, almost two million were built in Germany and a further 450,000 at Volkswagen factories elsewhere - a staggering total for what started out as a purely utilitarian vehicle.
Richard Copping, an acknowledged expert on the history of Volkswagen and the Transporter in particular, explores the history of the first generation model from its post-war origins through to the end of an era when production ceased in the mid-1970s.

Von Dutch is one of the most interesting characters in hot rod and popular culture history. Considered the founder of "modern" pinstriping, he was a prominent character in many of the rodding magazines of the late '50s, and his fame endured long after he apparently tired of it. Besides being a striper, he was a gifted artist, machinist, and gun- and knifesmith. Using stories and quotes culled from interviews, vintage photos, and images of the art and other works he left behind, this book chronicles Kenneth Howard's life from pinstriping beatnik to bus-dwelling hermit.
Where it can, this book sets the record straight on Von Dutch the man, but in many cases conflicting stories will serve to illustrate the contrary, colorful, and sometimes difficult nature of Von Dutch the legend. This book is a must-have for fans of hot rodding and hot rod culture!

In 1979 VW launched the Golf Cabriolet which quickly gained an image as a 'fun car' that appealed to the young generation and soon became the fashionable car to be seen in. Built by Karmann, the Cabrio model was initially based on the Mk 1 Golf GLI. The story came to an end in 2002 when Volkswagen discontinued the Golf Cabrio, but today the model is highly regarded and cherished by enthusiasts around the world.
