ABOUT
From heretofore secret files of the U.S. War Department, British Intelligence
Reports and records of the amazing recent history of VW comes this exciting
book. In its pages are true stories of VW development, VW use in World
War II and expansion of "The People's Car" throughout the civilized world.
Covered also is the truth about owner maintenance, making this a volume
that will be helpful to every VW owner interested in caring for his car.
Tools, diagrams, technical data (including the seldom-discussed 61-cubic
inch engine) and information needed to increase the pleasure derived from
owning one of world's most practical automobiles. Tune-up data, carburettor
overhaul, supercharging and brake adjustment are only a few of the many
subjects discussed. Carroll writes of all these with the enthusiasm of
a true Volkswagen fan.
The author is a nationally known writer on automotive subjects. As former
editor of a famous line of books in this field, he was responsible for
publication of many standard reference texts on automobiles. Carroll was
born in San Francisco in 1915 and educated in Los Angeles. Given a Model
T Ford when he was 12, he soon had it converted and was racing at Cali¬fornia's
Muroc Dry Lake.
