This is a Berrien Buggy (sorry Bruce!) that was assembled by my Transportation Technology Students at Woodroffe High School in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It has a New 1600 CC engine from Mexico with twin solex 34mm carbs with chokes and a Bosch 009 distributer. The only parts that are not new on this buggy are, a transmission we got out of a 1971 Beetle (which was rebuilt), the steering column, and miscellaneous brackets. It uses a IRS tube chassis with a ball joint front end. Aside from the side pods, we chose to make it 'old school' with just one VW gauge and a light switch (all other switches are on the early 70's VW column). We will be selling it soon to make money to do another project in the fall.
