Hi Jim, Once again, my comment about "thanks for suggesting book I'll never find" was in reference to the original post where he recommended the Elfrink Orange book, which is out of print! I have a Bentley now, and I'm happy to have it just for those writing diagrams.. :) Carrie -----Original Message----- From: Jim Adney [mailto:jadney@vwtype3.org] Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 6:53 PM To: type3@vwtype3.org Subject: RE: [T3] Bentley On 15 Aug 2001, at 15:07, Carrie Elm wrote: > I wasn't sure if I should be offended or what! > Damn near every time someone asks a question here the reply is "Check your > Bentley Manual" etc. > > Thanks for the suggestion of the book that I have no hope of ever finding in > a bookstore too :) The late one is readily available and is still useful for those who own cars earlier than 68. Here's the info: Volkswagen Official Service Manual Type 3 Fastback and Squareback 1968-1973 published by Robert Bentley, Cambridge, Mass, 1974 ISBN 0-8376-0057-X / LPV 997 383 / VSQU (excellent book, complete and well written) All printings for the last 15 years or so have had the wiring diagrams in B & W instead of color. I have a few old copies with color diagrams for which I ask a premium price. If your type 3 is older, there's no reason not to just buy a new one, though. I hear that you can find them a some places for around $30. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
