I must say I've seen a couple buggies in my Life. We have nothing to be shy about in SA. We got some hot buggies.
And it's a good why to Save a beetle when they die. Just don't make a baja from them...
After I've seen a Oval baja... I still can't sleep...

I
OWNED an oval Baja... I believe it was cut in the early 70s, when an oval wasn't really a classic car

...Pine hasn't learnt you see.
The 'hack' was passed on, the new owner 'forgot' it ever existed, and now? ...now he's just dumped himself in the doodie by telling us this horrific story.
His last possible saving grace is whether or not he actually paid for the thing.
Now, Pine, dear boy, did you or did you not pay for this atrocity?

Pines Oval Baja, became my oval baja, becaome Kobus's Oval Baja and has now become Jaco's oval Baja and now it's already got a front and rear valence installed, so it's no longer a baja........

The circle is complete!
But my Buggy STAYS a Buggy, OK?
(The guy I bought my Buggy from built it in 1971, from - in his own words - 'one of those old Beetles with the small window at the back'.)
When I got it, it indedd had an oval steering wheel, speedometer, front suspension and fuse box - the chassis was too far gone to get a number. When I rebuilt it, only the body, window frame and seats were kept from the original car.
