I've a copy of Porters book for Porsches, same title.  On that basis I'd say 
buy the book, mine is good, thorough. It is a good specific book, don't buy 
the generic Haynes body repair manual, not worth it.

Haynes make an aircooled vanagon manual, I like their books, 2nd to Bentley. 
 Haynes manuals are $18-20 CDN but often (3-4x/year) go on sale for 1/2 
price at chain FLAPS+ here.
