We have had this buggy for about 5 years now. The first few we did the get it running better work. Then came a set of used Crager ss rims. Then we cleaned it all up and chromed the engine and installed the neon. The last 2 years it has pretty much been neglected while waiting to get painted and re upholstered.
I am hopin got get it out soon and maybe do one of the latter this summer.

I purchased this as an unassembled body and a rusted out 68 bug for the donor chassis. I stripped the bug to the I beam, installed fiberglass floors and fabricated the assembly one step at a time. Completing it to the point of driver in six months. June of 2007. I recieved a top 25 trophy at a WI show in June also. (2nd time out). It's been fun but a lot of work. I would sell it so I can complete my next project. Thanks

| Story |
I am the proud owner of a 1970 Berry Mini T 2 which according to serial number is number 7 made that year. The story I was given by the owner is that she purchased the buggy new in 1970 from a dealer in Florida. The vehicle was made from a new 1970 VW Beetle and equipped with a cam and stroker kit along with many extras from a 1911-1914 model T.. The headlamps, tail lamps, inside mirror, radiator cap, side lamps and a few brass hardware items are all from the downer car. She informed that at the time VW's had been considered a toy more than a vehicle in the US and she purchased the converted VW for just a few thousand more than it would have cost for the Beetle. The tags on the side curtains and the interior had been custom made by a boat upholster in southern Florida.
The prior owner was married to a Doctor, she lived in Florida in the 1970's, moved to Brazil and lived there for a few years taking the Berry with her. She returned to the states at some point in the 1980's and her Berry came with her. Her and her husband moved to the Northern Pennsylvania area to retire in the early 90's and he died a few years later. When I purchased the vehicle about 12 years ago and it had 27,000 miles on the odometer. She has attempted to sell it for a very high price over a three or four year period of time but found few interested and fewer who could afford an expensive toy. She had electrical system problems, poor charging and due to age had difficulties getting in and out so she accepted my offer. The car is a van type Berry and is in very good condition considering that almost every part was original to her purchase in 1970. It is registered as a custom vehicle with the Berry Serial number.
I have added a couple of pictures taken last year. I had never seen one like this before and have been to many car shows without seeing another like it.

Replaced the carb and ignition coil. Now it starts with out hesitation or backfiring. However, while taking it out for a test drive the brake pedal went right to the floor and had to use the parking brake to stop. O well, just add it to the list. Update 10/6/10: Seat belts are in. replaced the Master cylinder and working on replacing the front brake hoses.

| Story |
This 1969 Berry Mini-T was brought to Berry in Long Beach in the Summer of 1969 as a stock 1969 VW and transformed into the legendary Berry Mini-T that you see here. It was then driven from Long Beack, CA to New Jersey and stored for aproxamately 38 years in a wharehouse with several other collector cars. It is now used as a pleasure vehicle on the weekends and is basically as "stock" as it left Berry's facility in 1969. It has the original top, wood steering wheel, billet engine eccessories, wind wings, and fully finished interior as installed by Berry. A fun option is the "Skidder Brake", a "second stick" next to the gear shift lever that locks up either the driver or passengers side rear brakes for some fun maneuvers in the sand or in a parking lot!

Was purchased by our dad around 1972 for us to learn to drive in. Years later after filling the gas tank, it was parked on a slight slope and gas dripped from the filler above the manifold and a fire erupted. A passerby said he tried to smother the fire but it had already spread into the cockpit. Needless to say the buggy was totally destroyed.

| Story |
My grandpa, Homer, built this car in the mid '80s to tow behind his motor home. He sold it to me (cheap) in 2004 when his hip started giving him problems and could not get in it anymore. I've let it sit and neglected the car a few years and decided to get it going again in his honor. He past away in 2010.

Almost done. We want to either put new seats in or cover the seats that are in it now. We also want to change out the tail lights. Not sure what we will do with them.

| Story |
We bought this buggy about a little over a month ago. We took the engine down to bare bones, cleaned it, painted it, added chrome, changed the generator over to an alternator, added electronic ignition, electric fuel pump and an MST serpentine belt system. We cleaned the rest of the rear area of the buggy added chrome axle caps. After that we added the interior. The interior was bare when we started. We put in the side panels, and made the back seat. We put in a VW floor mat. We took off the 14 inch wheels and put on 15s. We did all the work ourselves.
