The bus tails would look good :shock: Well,a GT3 buggy would have a wild Porsche GT3 orange/green colour,BBS split rims,Porsche instrumentation and seats,as well as a Type 4 engine!And of course the GT3 badges :wink:
Pine,I have a pair of front Type 3 seats if you're interested?


If it's too low, you're too old :twisted:

That sounds nice!

Thanks for the seats offer, but I've tried in the past standard Beetle seats and they were too low for a buggy, guess it would be the same with Type 3 seats?

I wouldn't know about the size,but I do know that Type 3 seats are bigger than a Beetle.You're more than welcome to have a look at them the next time you come past here :wink:

Thanks Didi and Uncle Bill!

Since the first time we went to a game farm in the buggy, and Teresa drove it herself, she was hooked. She was also very sad after the acccident - said it almost felt like we lost a child - but we both look forward to new adventures in Hot Wheels 2!

Went to the Lion & Rhino Park in Krugersdorp with the Bay today - managed to get through some impressive off-road bits, and had great fun. But to be honest, I'll rather look at lions through the sunroof of a Bus than from the low seats of a Buggy :shock:

Well, at least the Tiger cubs are still pretty harmless... :wink:

Pine

If you are in the Rhino & Lion Park vicinity again, give me a call, that is "my" valley - we virtually neighbour onto the park. Approx 7km from the gate, but about 1km from the nearest fence. On a quiet night we can sometimes hear the lions.
