finally after 3 and a half years my buggy, now called 'Zak', is registered. :thumb
Not everything is perfect. But now I can drive him and test out things properly. He goes like stink, shame the gearshift is a pain.
:o
Oh well, we can sort that out later.

Been watching the progress on the website, congrats.

Well done. I read the story on your website and am impressed. That's one seriously cool buggy you've got.

I bet goes like stink is a hell of an understatement.

to Ducky;
Not sure of the year (someone told me 68?), but it is a very early J&S. I think it could be one of the very first to be made. It uses the standard 60's beetle tail-lights and the bonnet is one layer and not very thick at all. Have you got a J&S?
