Dave's Project Another reunion story here, after getting back in touch with Aaron after all those years, I found that my old mate Dave now works with Aaron and he was also interested in building a Buggy. After a little bit of hunting around Dave had found himself a suitable Beetle to convert into a Beach Buggy, we all went to view it in nearby Colchester and decided that it was a suitable donor car and had all the correct components we needed to build another Buggy.
Dave was undecided what buggy he was to build but knew one thing it was going to be a SWB so Craig who had shortened my chassis for me was given a call and within a few weeks it was shortened and crying out for the bodyshell. There was rumours amongst those in the know that a brand new designed bodyshell was being created. It was to be known as a Surf Buggy, it was heavily based on a Manx but with larger front wings and also revised dashboard. Dave instantly liked the sound of it and ordered the new design.
Dave also liked the moulded rear seat option and grooved sidepods and ordered those too, he also has an opening bonnett. The colour is a Black Miraflake with Deep purple stripe through the centre.
