Very rare South African Glitterbug (totally different to American buggy of the same name). Manx-esque lines.

SWB; Historic / tax exempt; same owner for the last 30 years; Imported / first UK registered 1976; 1960 or 61 chassis; 1200 cc engine; 6v electrics; Drum brakes all round; Completely standard VW mechanically.
Little use since complete rewire and last MOT. Currently Sorned /garaged.
Selection of steel rims - 6 in total - 7", 8" wide and standard VW. Very substantial / solid GRP tub moulding. Several sets of weather gear. Many parts are either galvanised/zinc sprayed/powder coated. Gearbox needs attention as synchromesh gone on 2nd. Rear bumper cage  - not shown in photo. £2,800 ono. Located Fareham, Hampshire. (Near Portsmouth).
Photos - Pls see below - reply #6 from disasterbus.(Thanks again disasterbus)
The company that produced the Glitterbug also made an Empi Imp copy. A few "hybrid" cars were produced, featuring Glitterbug body moulding, with Imp bonnets - of which this is one.

You cannot post from photobucket unless you pay up try postimage.org it is easy and not full of annoying adverts that stop you working.
