Description

This superb VW Beetle-based 'beach buggy', a style inspired by Californian surf culture vehicles.

This example is finished in bright yellow with yellow bucket seats and chrome modular wheels, which really set the buggy off.

A larger 1640cc engine has been fitted making for an exciting drive and providing a fabulous sound track.

Restored c.2017/18 with a running gear overhaul and new floor pans welded in, there are imperfections on the bodywork but it is a fabulous opportunity to be used and improved.

It certainly turns heads wherever it goes! It starts on the button and is ready to be used for plenty of open top motoring miles to come.

Temptingly offered without reserve, go on, treat yourself.
