Book Reviews of Dune Buggy Handbook
Book Review: Great coffee table book
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm really not a VW or Buggy fan, but this book has some really neat VW based buggies in it, and is definitely a good conversation starter. I actually purchased this because I had bought an oddball buggy out of someone's garage and was trying to identify it (and yes, it was in the book).
The pictures and descriptions are very nice, short enough to not make a novel out of every selection, but enough detail to provide some interesting facts.
It's also great for inspiration if you're building a custom buggy. It gives you an idea of what's been done, and what an idea you may already have may look like when it's completed.
Summary of Dune Buggy Handbook
At last! The complete A-Z guide to American & British Volkswagen-based Dune/Beach Buggies for all VW enthusiasts. Over 100 individual makes of Buggy described and pictured. Each entry gives model description, technical specification, identification tips & historical information. Many previously unpublished photographs. Written by a leading authority on Buggies, who also gives an introduction to the Buggy cult. Contains archive material including period ads and sales brochures as well as related toys. Contains an appendix detailing current manufacturers' addresses. Not only has James Hale designed and produced Buggies for a leading manufacturer, he's also the resident Buggy expert for Volksworld magazine; his own car is a faithful reproduction of the Steve McQueen Thomas Crown Affair Corvair-engined Buggy.
