Re: Project "Doom-Buggy" Early '60's Buggy...

While in the ghetto, I also picked up a few other things I needed for the buggy.
-
First off is a cool, early-style (62') SpeedO and mechanical fuel guage. My buggy was lacking a dash-board, so some aluminum plate will take care of that.
-

-

-
Next, the fuel tank was half filled with a mixture of dirt and rust (??) It weighed about 25 lbs !! So a replacement was needed. This is the flat, 'inside-fill' style:
-

-

-
The buggy had wiper hole bossed modeled into the hood ... so a 12v wiper assembly was picked up:
-

-
In addition, I picked up two seat bottoms (tracks) ... and a hi-low beam switch. The one in the buggy fell apart into dust (Literally !!!)
-
It's Sunday now....'family day' so we are heading to Monterey to hang out at the beach, back soon !!
