Volkswagen Transporter Type 2 Workshop Manual: 1963-1967

In the same tradition as our classic 1961-1965 Type 1 manual, this manual offers owners of 1960s vintage Transporters the long out-of-print factory repair information. Indispensable to anyone interested in the history or restoration of the Transporter, this book includes complete coverage of 1200 and 1500 engines, dual-circuit brakes, and body dimension specifications for all models-even those with sliding sunroof. Factory updates are listed by chassis number and date introduced. This is the one book no serious Type 2 enthusiast should be without.
