Have noticed that some articles do come around again in other places:thumb

Well if you give credit were credits due then every one gets to read it:cool:

Hi Jenz

A club member with a country buggy found that magazine at a swap meet, he passed it on too me and I put it in our club mag, then Louis asked could he use it.

Last issue we had a very good story about an eccentric guy in the UK who had a 46 model Beetle converted to LPG, this was from Wheelspin.

There is some really good reading on the site link where the country buggy story is located.

Hey Steve

Thanks. The archive on the site is massive. Good reading for a rainy day

Wah, an eccentric English man:o

I'd like to read that:cool:

What issue?

Wheelspin - August 27th, 2003 at 08:01 AM

Someone alerted me to this thread

Thanks all for your interest, I also have a couple of queries.

Anybody got a decent pic of a country Buggy I can use for the site, the only one I have is not that good

As many may have guessed, the Concept Kubel went in an issue around April - but everyone seems to have taken it at face value

I have an update for the eccentric guy article, I will send it on to Zeitscrift

Oh and could, I use the nice colur buggy book cover for my site, I will naturally site helterskelter400 as the contribtor

cheers everyone :bounce

i just picked it up off the net somewhere

jenz58 - August 27th, 2003 at 09:58 AM

Hmmm, that's me taking things at face value i.e. re the Concept Kubel;)

So be warned:o

Just had to post it cos I'd never seen a pic before

Hey Wheelspin great that you could drop in here:cool:

Hey guys & gals,

If you havent already, check out this country buggy in the US, would be very hard to beat (though the price is probably a reflection of that)
