VW 1302 / 1303 - Die Evolution der Super-Käfer

From Porsche's dream to a reality built over 20 million times. From a propaganda object of the Nazi era to a metal symbol of the Federal Republic of Germany.
At the beginning of the 1970s, however, the appeal of the humpbacked crawler waned; the Super Beetles of the early 1970s were supposed to rescue the aged rear-engine concept into the modern era.

Alexander Storz takes the reader on a journey through time to the high point and end point of German Beetle production. With a large number of historical photos, documents and brochures, the author creates a worthy monument to the Wolfsburg long-distance runner and brings the 1970s back to life alongside the technical history.

So fuhren wir im VW Käfer - Ein Fotoalbum

The VW Beetle was indisputably the car of the economic miracle years. Even when it was no longer fashionable, Germans bought their beloved Beetle for decades because it ran and ran and ran reliably. It shaped the streets of the old Federal Republic of Germany like no other car of that time and somehow almost everyone had one.
If you also like to indulge in nostalgic memories of that time - perhaps with your own VW Beetle - then this unique photo album is your book!

Over the years, Armin Printzen has collected photos of VW Beetles from private archives and flea markets across the country and compiled them in this charming picture book. The result: a journey through the old Federal Republic of Germany with the VW Beetle in previously unpublished images.
