ccbuggy wrote:Found it a couple towns over from me. Been sitting sence 1985, 25 years!! Not sure of the body maker, I know its not a Manx. Its a real good copy of one. The body is nice and thick almost 3/8 inchs in some places. The pan is a 59 swing axle with linkpin up front. The engine is a single port and is junk. It will need new floors, tunnel is is in good shape. Has old school headlights not sure what they came off of? Anyone? They are in really good shape. Check out the pic of the dash and MOON gas petal. I will be putting most of the old school parts onto my Manx and this body will be for another project. I love finding these old buggys, its like a time machine. To bad they not stored a little better!!
Yes there is a buggy in there!!
Headlights from what??
Moon pedal!! Cool!!
Can we go for a ride now?

Re: Bush find Buggy
I never looked twice at Beach Buggies. Pine's enthusiasm for them has me looking at every one I see. Ishould start taking photos for him. We've got a very rounded one running around PE. Seems to be owned by a Sparky.
