I have a suspicion that the original picture is going to disappear soon due to the fact that it is way over the 50kb limit, so here's one that isn't....
Ps. nice buggy!!:thumb

I remember seeing a buggy design similar to that once before... I think it was called a "Manta"? Not sure though- does anyone else recall a buggy called a Manta

I'm pretty sure that I used to see this cruizing around the Central Coast a couple of years ago?

There is a similar buggy to this type called as Astrum which has the frenched headlights as well but much wider where you would expect them to be. Peter who was at the Klub VW Offroad weekend has a beautiful example of an Astrum glossed in purple metalic. Mmmm.

Hi
Your buggy is a Bugle. I am the new owner of the Bugle moulds and rights. It's nice to see one down under. How old is the bug?.
Apart from the VW engines there are 85 different engine adapter options for the Bugle now from 1200Vw to LexusV8 and a five speed box (if you can afford it).
Do you know of any more Bugles in Oz

Hi
I am based in the UK, I will need an address to send the info to. The moulds were revamped by GT Mouldings in England which have now been purchased by myself. It is now based on a Beetle chassis shortened by 12inches. I have found 3 good engine adapter suppliers from the UK and the USA to supply the engine adapters. Before I send you some info try these sites
