Taipan buggy history?


Does anyone have any info on the Taipan buggy? I've heard that they used the J&S mould to make it. Is that true?

Also mine is the 2 piece body with the fuel tank up the front, I haven't seen any other ones like it, would it be rare now?

it is true.

and the split bonnet and body were an option with them.
in most cases the bonnet was grafted to the body and the fuel tank was put above the engine.

same thing go for the austrum buggies, they are a 2 piece mould, but most people opted to graft the bonnet to the body, which is a silly idea i think.
