I’m looking for a set of ‘Boonie Bug” plans .The R.Q. Riley Enterprise web link is down , I’ve left messages by phone and on FB . It looks like Mr. Riley might have passed away . The Boonie Bug is a square van built on a shortened bus “pan” I have the Popular Mechanics from 74 it was featured in . I’m looking for the full plans that could be ordered from Riley Enterprise at one time. Thanks for any help .

Body is fiberglass over urethane foam - which results in a strong light body.
