Country Buggy for sale in the USA
Found this on the samba site too.
Qoute "RARE VW Country Buggy from Australia - $12,500 obo
This is an extremely rare 1968 VW Country Buggy. This was built in Australia by Volkswagen and features a type 1 floor pan and type two suspension
bits. It is right hand drive, 6 volt electrics, 1300cc engine with crank start, 3 spoke standard steering wheel, very odd Beetle based seats and a
whole host of other interesting features. This car is one of only three known in the US and one of roughly 100 known to exist world wide. I imported
it personally from Australia and just finished the restoration. It is in fabulous shape and would be a very nice addition to any serious VW
collection. Interesting trades considered... will help with shipping arrangements to anywhere. This is a very rare beast...there are less of these
than there are Hebmullers in the world!!

they are very rare in the US as theres only 3 or 4 over there. I guess a bit like the guy over there paying $495 us for a chrome flash of one of our
beetles they dont have them over there so they want them
