A few days ago Reuben (Beetlepower) sent me this pic that was taken at the 1969 Nine Hours of Kyalami. It shows a buggy promoting an LP called 'Sounds Wild', with some eye candy (are we still allowed to say 'Seat Cover'?) on the hood.

I then realised that I actually have that very same LP!

We've always referred to this buggy shape as the 'Hill Buggy', althoug I was never sure if it was the name of the body, or the company that built them?
