Well I finally got around to taking some photos of my buggy, now that it is on the road. The motivating factor was to photo the buggy that I got off brad before it gets some much needed attention. Originally my brother wanted Brads C/B, until he saw the work that was needed, and hence now I have two.
It only took an hour or so to get the doors and roof off to expose the standard buggy body (if you could call it that).
Whilst it looks bad, I am thinking that it is salvageable, probably wouldnt be viable to pay someone to do restore it though. Have to do a lot of metal work, which is good, cause I could do with the welding practise. Can see it being a good winter project.
And whilst I am here, the new buggy didn't come with any running gear, so if anyone knows where I could source a CB front and rear end, that would be good...otherwise it will sit on a raised beetle pan.
Having a complete CB will progress things a great deal, as I can fabricate panels etc from the good one.. (that is the theory, whether it works or not is another thing)
