Hey, I'm Zach and I bought my first buggy when I was 21. I own a Berry Mini T and I love it! I've owned it a little over 2 years now and have been working on it. I happened to come across it at random and had no intentions on buying a dune buggy at the time, but I saw it sitting there with a for sale sign on it and nearly broke my neck as I was driving by. I had to check it out so I pulled over and hopped out of the truck. I felt like a kid on Christmas while I was looking it over and knew that I had to have it! I've been hooked ever since that moment. I joined this forum to meet other buggy enthusiasts and hope to gain some knowledge about my dune buggy from you all. It's good to be here!

Welcome and nice buggy. Do you have a top? Have you also visited the samba site? Great people here n there.
Welcome to the DBA. Nice looking buggy

Thank you sirs! I appreciate it. I have been on samba and I think I'm going to go sign up over there also. I do have the top as well as the windows that zip/button on the sides. However the windows have a yellowish tint which makes it hard to see out of and the top is kind of tattered. Do you think it would be a good idea to let a professional take apart the top for a pattern to make a new one or should I try to figure something else out?
I plan on spending the day in the shop working on it tomorrow so I'll try to get some more pics while I'm at it.
HAVE YOU HAD IT ON THE ROAD YET.?
Yeah it was running good for a bit but then I had to replace one of the heads and I'm currently in the process of getting new barrels now. I can't wait to take it out again, this thing is a blast!
I've been driving mine since I built it 47 years ago. A lifetime of fun, never grows old.................
That's amazing Bob! I never plan on letting mine go. I would definitely love to see it if you happen to have any pictures available.
I'll try to attach some photos.
