$$ Looking for a Yellow Beach Buggy
AussieAdam - April 8th, 2009 at 10:48 PM

Hello All, Fantastic website and I thought I would try my luck - I am actually attempting to track down a VW Beach Buggy that my father fully restored MANY moons ago - I keep hearing its still cruising around and is still living - My father restored it over 15 years ago and I belive it was sold to someone around the Tamworth area. It had alot of custom fibreglass body work done and moulded by my father. Key differance I recall was a mouled in fuel cap centre of bonnet and the rear engine housing was totally customised. I still have photos of this being rebuilt.

It ended up Bright Yellow with Custom Yellow Roll Bar - and yellow Dash. Black racing seats. If anyone on this site thinks they have seen it around I would love any tip offs that might help me track this vehicle down !! $$$$ - Cheers - Adam

MATE This is the one - My Father built this car - does anyone have a clue where it may be these days - the drag way wheels are different as my father had 12 slotters on it 15" wide on the back actually. - I would dearly love to know if this monster is still around - any further help would be appreciated !!!
