Build and modify your Volkswagen Beetle using today’s greatest aftermarket parts while implementing historic and modern modifications!

If ever a car rolled off the factory floor in the form of a blank slate, the Volkswagen Beetle is it. In fact, after taking delivery of their beloved Bug, many owners began modifications and customizations to personalize their favorite German compact.

Perhaps the most charismatic automobile ever, the Volkswagen Beetle was the longest-running, most-manufactured automobile on a single platform in automotive history. From 1938 to 2003, more than 21.5 million Bugs were assembled, distributed, and sold on nearly every continent in the world. If there’s a component that owners can modify, they’ll do it, and each custom touch makes them love their Beetle even more.

• 21.5 million Volkswagen Beetles were produced from 1938 through 2003 

• Practically every component can be built and modified on the Volkswagen Beetle. These cars are perfect for modernization and customizing 

• This book features step-by-step photography that assists the reader from start to finish

Author: Eric LeClair & Susan Anderson

Author Bio: For this project, Susan Anderson’s fingers did the typing. Her mind formed the words after translating the thoughts and expertise of the “real” authors into layman’s terms. The “real authors” are those who bang steel, turn wrenches, and polish, polish, polish to create the kinetic works of art that roll out of the Airkooled Kustoms shop in Hazel Green, Alabama. They are: Eric “Spook” LeClair, Rodney Culp, Alex Dodd, John Alba (Grumpy’s Metal), Jason Fields (Rare Air Mfg.), Steve “Fish” Fisher (Doug’s Buggs and Bunnies), Kerry Pinkerton (Imperial Wheeling Machines), Pete Skiba (Airkewld), and Don West (West Coast Wipers).
