Title: Bently manuals.......
Post by: josh on September 18, 2008, 09:21:43 PM

So I just bought the 52-57 Bently manual from cip and it arrived today but low and behold the info I bought it for isn't in it >:(

I wanted the factory measurements for the body; door openings, front clip etc. I posted this question on the samba an was informed that the 58-61 manual has the specs I need.........why this one doesn't I don't know.

Does anyone here own the 58-61 book that could scan those pages for me pleeeeeease? I don't really feel like spending $100 twice.
My e-mail is joshbuchan@shaw.ca


thanks josh

i've got that manual too Josh, if you need to look at in person / photocopy anything.

It covers bugs and ghias.  It's a big-assed manual

I kinda forgot about that today!
Did you get all 5 pages?

Even though I have never owned a 60s car, I bought the 61-65 genuine VW manual.  There is so much info in it, it's almost good bedtime reading.
