- Traveling
With the VW Bus and Camper - Introduced in the 1950s, the
VW bus was designed to be multifunctional. Since then, it has
come to symbolize fun, freedom, and adventure. VW bus owners
fully incorporate their vehicles into their lives: Some treat
them as an extension of their home, while others undertake epic
journeys in them, across desert and sea, and through Europe,
Asia, and Africa. Some strap surfboards to the roof and head
for the nearest beach, while others soup up the engines and
take them drag racing in California. All will spend hours restoring
and customizing them and even more time talking about them with
fellow bus owners. Traveling with the VW Bus and Camper is a
tribute to this passion, to the owners who have lavished time,
effort, and inspiration on their campers, and, of course, to
the VW bus itself. This book traces the cult of the camper,
from family errands to vacation home to design icon. Above all
else, the campervan is living history and readers will find
chapters dedicated to travel narratives detailing road trips
from England to Afghanistan and back, ad campaigns that sell
the VW bus lifestyle, and weddings and other family events that
feature buses in their ceremonies. Obsession or addiction? See
for yourself.
- Demon
Bugs: VW Customs and Cruisers - This book provides a fantastic
overview of customized Bugs. It shows us the scene from which
the demon bug emerged, and then focuses on specific styles,
from the mild to the wild. Cruisers and dragsters, sleepers
and monsters--all are captured by Stephan Szantai’s unmatched
photography. And accompanying these remarkable pictures
is the how and why of each car’s build. Painted,
re-equipped, modified to taste, these are the Bugs of a generation’s
dreams, a most humble vehicle suddenly and magnificently transformed.
