Grimshaw's Beetle - A Photographic Marvel

The author presents over 140 pages of large, detailed color photographs of Beetles from the world over. There is a short section on Beetle history, but the two main sections feature vintage & restored cars and "Cal-look", customized Beetles. The color photograph reproduction is outstanding, as is the detail in the pictures themselves. The photos show up-close views of interiors, engine compartments, hoods, front-ends and wheels & tires. This is a great book for anyone who loves Beetles (or is thinking about one) and is looking for ideas about restoration and fix-up.
