It seems that the only problem with this conversion is the ECU decoding but we are working on this.

New Adapter Kit Coming Soon

dummy@example.com (BugleBeachbuggies) — Fri, 15 Jul 2011 19:57:09 +0000

Next week we will be making plans for a very modern engine fitment onto a Beetle gearbox. Its very compact with a very small radiator requirement. Measurements from the gearbox will be taken first.

I remember the original mould coming onto the market a few years back. I notice then that the firewall was missing then. Are you keeping it SWB or LWBing it. The original sandpipers had Rover SDI rear lamps and whatever you decided on the front. The firewall will depend on your preferred wheelbase. I can get one made up but I am not sure what time scale it will be. Its a MK2 Bugle wall so it different to the original.

Greetings, ive just bit the bullet and bought a second hand tub, however the lower front bulkhead section that goes from the back of the dash to the `top hat` section is not in place, can anyone advise me on what to do or if these sections have a mould and are any available?

cheers! rob

First Buggy Ride

My first Buggy ride was in Ilhabela Brazil. We were taking a tour of the island which has some pretty steeped roads going uphill our buggy decided to die out on us, 3 of us jumped out to push and traffic was unsympathetic. I've been addicted ever since...

I am sure this has been done before. I think some of the UVA/Sandrail boys have done it. I have just found this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9N-c-uPCNc
