|
|
I have an early 70's Kellison Sandpiper Pickup basket case, still in kit form. It has been sitting in the previous owner's storage shed since it was new. About the only thing I know I really need is a Build Manual. I am fairly certain I can find any parts I may need but a build manual has been impossible to find. Any help would be appreciated. Will even take a photocopy.
This kit is not for sale so please do not ask. The previous owner is a family member so it is important to him to see the project finished. |

The best archive of beach buggy build manuals used to be at TJ Kustoms but it seems to be down. I do not know if they had the manual your seek. Hopefully someone has a copy for you! _________________

I have a completed sandpiper pickup. Can take any pictures you need. They are made for a full length pan so it is basically bolt the body to the pan. after that its the same as any other buggy.

thank you for your response. I had made the first enquiry based on a partial photo of the buggy. From the front end and the fact it is a pickup body, I was almost certain it was a Kellison Sandpiper pickup. Once it finally arrived here, I found it was not a sandpiper at all. It is in fact a Sand Flee Pickup.
