Hi all, I was wondering if anyone here could help me as to the origins of the body on my Buggy. The guy I bought it from didnt' know much of anything about it (he even told me it was a '75 Super Beetle chasis but it's actually a '73 standard). Here's the pics:
I think you have a "Citation". They are now being produced by Berrien Buggy, but I think at one time they were manufactured by Breman Motorsports of Breman Indiana. I'm sure someone can help out with the history.
Awesome, thanks! I believe mine was assembled in 1980. Needs some work, but the body is in near mint condition (just needs a bit of elbow grease and it'll look brand new). Does anyone know if the windshield assembly that manx sells would fit directly onto my bug?
If you buy a new windshield frame be sure to utilize the channel on the inside of the frame that will allow you to hide the windshield frame mounting bolts.
The Citation body molds are in very poor condition and it is not feasible to repair them. To continue to offer the Citation would require new molds, which will be a very costly endeavor, and we have decided not to pursue that at this time. If you have been planning to build a "tub buggy" and the Citation is your preference, email us so that we know how much interest there is in keeping this body style available
Anyone know how long it's been since they've made a new one?
