EVERY MAN NEEDS A SHED FOR THEIR COUNTRY BUGGY
A fellow enthusiast sent me this photo of what could the the Country Buggy production line from the factory with the 3 CBs in situ.
It is actually a photo of his "shed" which is rather well fitted out. The CB body you see on the rotisserie was unbolted from pan sitting on the
hoist. The body was bolted to the rotisserie using the bumper bar bracket holes as mounting points and the hoist was then dropped leaving both the pan
and the body to be worked on separately.
Both the other two CBs are runners and it wont be long before the next one is on the road as well.
