Wolfsburg Buggy

Post by Pine »

A few interesting scanned pics of a Wolfsburg-registered buggy, as featured in the German 'Hobby' magazine, August 1968, that I found at Piston Ring yesterday. In the article, it is compared to kit cars based on Fiat and Renault cars. Seems like the TÜV Gestapo already had an influence on the rear.. :lol:

Awesome looking buggy.... Would be better if it was running wide 5's though as it looks too "modern" with those front rims and possibly disc's on, but I suppose that was already standard when this was made for those folk in sausage and beer land.
