Please ask any questions. This is not a fully restored buggy. Yes pictures from my camera makes everything look good. Keep in mind it is 57 years old. The person I bought it from and myself have kept it indoors. It may, and will need some work at some point. It looks good and gets a ton of compliments and thumbs up. It's fun to drive but it is not fast. The only reason I am selling it; is I do not drive it much with our short summers. It has approximatly 800 miles on it since the rebuild and I bought it when it had about 300-400 miles. I have owned it for a little over 2 years. I drive it around my town and to car shows. I will tell you that you have to hold the steering wheel good, this thing only weighs 1300lbs. and will follow every rut in the road; lol. Fun to drive though.
If you are into nostalgia, then this is the car for you. If you like working on cars; this is for you. If you like to have a car that is becoming a dying breed; then this is for you. Again, I may have down played the car about the description, but I'd rather give it a lower rating and you be happy when you see it; then sizing it up. I don't think you'll be disapointed. Let's make a deal!
