I wish I had NEVER sold it!!! The paint on this one was flawless. I purchased it at the time all finished and registered as you see it. I had it for about a year, really didn't do anything to it and decided to sell it and devote my time to the Meyers Manx I also had (pics of that on the way). I paid $900 for the Deserter GT and think I sold it for $2500 about a year later. Remember, back then internet didn't exist and I can only think the current sale price of this Deserter GT today would be about $10,000 + ???

Enjoy the pics, Mark]]> http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/forum/topic_show.pl?pid=24463 Bob P 2855 2012-01-31T13:40:25Z 2012-01-31T13:40:25Z 2
"Doncha Jus' Luv It...?" Nice Buggy.  I started mine in mid 1968 and it originally had a 36 hp. Good luck with your's.

P.S. Still driving the "Lil' Bugger", 44 yrs later......]]> http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/forum/topic_show.pl?pid=24462 Manx102 M 2478 2012-01-31T06:35:38Z 2012-01-31T06:35:38Z 9 http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/forum/topic_show.pl?pid=24460 Chad M 3065 2012-01-31T02:26:29Z 2012-01-31T02:29:48Z 9 http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/forum/topic_show.pl?pid=24457 LoCashJohn 2012-01-30T22:46:00Z 2012-01-30T22:51:06Z 2

There are very few buggies running around CT, I would hate to see another one go out of state.

Its such a pain to get them registered in CT and yours would be so easy to register. Just go down to the DMV with your paperwork, I don't think you'll even need to get it inspected and you can probably still keep the old vanity plates.]]> http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/forum/topic_show.pl?pid=24423 Bob P 2855 2012-01-27T17:35:16Z 2012-01-27T17:35:16Z 5 http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/forum/topic_show.pl?pid=24420 Randy R 3034 2012-01-27T13:09:48Z 2012-01-27T13:09:48Z 5 Thanks for the reply! yea I will be 60 in may, (I do not like getting old) Your buggy is sharp! I think the hobbys is what keeps us going.  My top will come off with 4 bolts (not as fast as yours) Now all we need is nice weather.

$$$$$$$ Finders Fee Offered $$$$$$$$

I am the original builder of this beauty (see the attached photo) and would love to haver it back in my collection again.

I think that some of us one time or another have sold a buggy that later in life we regretted ever parting with. As for me it was in 1976. I was a young dumb teen that did not know what I had built. So now I am looking for it. It was built using a 1965 Bug pan and a Sand Puppy Body. It was last seen in SE Michigan as the new owner drove it away. As far as I know it may still be in the area. It may still have the original 1200 VW single port engine. The original color was metallic silver with ice blue custom paint on the hood. VDO gauges, speedometer, fuel and volt meter. Chevy chrome reverse wheels with moon caps. It also has 1968 Chevy Nova tail lights which are very unique in itself. Most builders that use a Sand Puppy body, usually used Pinto or Maverick tail lights.

If you know where this Dune Buggy is or even own it. Please contact me. I would like to buy it back and will pay fair market value.
