Marty!!
Great to see your buggy on here.
My dad reads Street Machine Mag and every year I wonder who owns the buggy that smashes all the V8s in the driving events.
What engine and box are running?
Do you have a build diary of the car at all?

If you said I was a Volkswagen man, you'd be right.

Hey Smiley,
No build diary as such but have pics of the process etc. Took nearly 18months for the full body off resto!! (you can see how it used to look in my
avatar photo)
Engine is a 94mm x 78mm stroke with all the trimmings + dual throttle body (IDF replacement) EFI conversion with microtech ECU. Bolted to a standard
box through a kennedy stage 1 box.
It goes well, had it down at Wakefield Park not long after i finished it and was cornering a quick as a Lotus Elise and hanging onto him in the
open!!! :-)
