Hi all
Has anyone done a pull down windshield for a beach buggy before (like the willys jeep)
Thinking of building one, but need some ideas/inspiration.

No sense being pessimistic. It wouldn't work anyway.

Re: Pull down wind shield
I can't recall ever seeing that on a buggy, but the Kubelwagen, Schwimmwagen and Type 181 were designed that way from the factory.


Should be a nice feature on your buggy! I believe the Willy's Jeep had this ability in order to be able to carry a wounded soldier on a stretcher (casevac) on the battlefield?
