This one on eBay now seems to be in pretty good shape. I have both of these manuals now, and I'm not parting with either of them. Check out Everett's site <http://thesamba.com/vw/type3/literature/books/books.htm> to see many more cool books. Maybe one of them there is what you are thinking of.

Just stuff I've ran across with my daily searches on eBay. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
