worth quite a lot of money now, check it out first. That was quite a popular buggy almost as much as the GP and manx ones except you try and find a manta ray kit now. If you need any advice on how to do it just ask.

I've owned a buggy for ages, 10 years or so I think, owned the base car for 19 years now my first ever car, bought as my 16th birthday present. Unfortunately Most never saw the road and were used as offroad toys then were abandoned and just rotted away.
