Anyone know a book shop in the center of brissy that stocks VW books?

I am after the How to modify VW Beetle Suspension, brakes and chassis one.

Cheers

Tough luck buddy! You'll have to probably order it in with a long wait.

Micks might be able to help you, or try some of the other sponsors. You should be able to do everything with a credit card and the post faster than the bookstores. Amazon are good too.

There are good Auto book shops that sell VW Books, but the one I bought My books from was in Perth WA...

There is a How to modify a Beetle book on ebay at the moment for $19-95...

Most book shop books start at $45-00...

There is a bloke who I bought a few vw books off who is based from home in Coorparoo - he has quite a surprisingly big selection in stock.

I will get his details at home tonight and post here.
