HERE I AM OFFERING UP ANOTHER ONE OF MY RARE, VINTAGE SCHUCO VEHICLES.

HERE I AM OFFERING UP A MID 1970'S, VINTAGE AND IN PERFECT WORKING CONDITION/ORDER "BEACH BUGGY" WHICH IS MADE OUT OF PLASTIC AND TIN. THIS "BEACH BUGGY" AKA "DUNE BUGGY" HAS A FULLY OPERATIONAL 4 SPEED STICK SHIFT (IN FORWARD SPEEDS), REVERSE AND NEUTRAL!

IN ADDITION TO THIS, THIS STICK SHIFT HAS BEEN DESIGNED SO WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN REVERSE OR NEUTRAL, YOU CAN ONLY SHIFT INTO FIRST GEAR! THEY CONSIDERED THIS AN "EDUCATIONAL GIMMICK" AND A LEARNING TO DRIVE TOOL!

THE BODY ON THIS BUGGY IS AS NEW WITH ONLY ONE (1) SMALL EXCEPTION. THE FRONT BUMPER WAS ONCE CRACKED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS WAS REPAIRED A WHILE AGO AND A SMALL PIECE OF STYROFOAM WAS CUT AND INSERTED INTO IT TO PREVENT ANY FURTHER DAMAGE FROM ARISING WHILE IN STORAGE (AS THIS DID BREAK WHILE IN IT'S ORIGINAL BOX).

ALL OF THE ADD ON'S TO INCLUDE THE FRONT AND REAR DIRECTIONALS ARE ORIGINAL AS ARE THE REAR OUTSIDE DUAL MIRRORS, HEADLIGHTS, WINDSHIELD FRAME, BUCKET SEATS AND REAR ROLL BAR.

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD DOES FOLD DOWN AND HERE YOU ALSO HAVE THE ORIGINAL PLASTIC WINDSHIELD IN PLACE!

THE STEERING WHEEL DOES WORK AND THE FRONT WHEELS DO TURN IN UNISON WITH THE STEERING WHEEL. YOU ALSO HAVE A BRAKE WHICH DOES "STOP" AND "START" THE STRONG ORIGINAL CLOCKWORK ENGINE. THIS IS LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WITHIN THE COCKPIT AND TO THE FRONT (SMALL METAL TAB). THIS STILL WORKS AS IT IS DESIGNED TO WORK.

THE BODY IS MADE OUT OF PLASTIC AS IS THE CHASSIS AND I CAN FIND NO SCRATCHES, SPYDER CRACKS, CHIPS OR SIGNS OF USAGE ON EITHER THE BODY OR CHASSIS.

THE INTERIOR CONSISTS OF TWO (2) BUCKET SEATS AND A REAR ROLL BAR! THESE DO DETACH AND THIS IS HOW THIS CAME TO ME ORIGINALLY. THEY EASILY GO INTO POSITION AND COME OFF FOR STORAGE JUST AS EASILY.

THE WHEELS AND TIRES ARE NEW AND HAVE NO CRACKS IN THE RUBBER CENTER SECTION OF THE TIRES. THESE ARE DESIGNED TO BE REMOVED AND ALTHOUGH NO TOOL EVER CAME WITH THIS BUGGY, THEY DO SCREW ON AND OFF BY TURNING THE CENTER CAPS WITH YOUR FINGERS. YOU WILL ALSO NOTICE THAT THE REAR TIRES ARE WIDER THEN THE FRONT, HERE THEY CAPTURED THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE REAL DUNE BUGGY.

THIS "BEACH BUGGY" WINDS UP FROM THE REAR AND AS I MENTIONED ABOVE, THE CLOCKWORK DRIVE IS VERY STRONG AND DOES NO SKIP OR FALTER.

THE ORIGINAL BOX IS PRESENT AND IN VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT OVERALL SHAPE/CONDITION. OTHER THEN THE FACTORY ADDED TWO (2) SMALL PIECES OF TAPE TO SEAL THE ENDS, NO OTHER TAPE OR GLUE HAS EVER BEEN ADDED TO THE BOX. YOU DO HAVE A LITTLE SHELF RASHING AS THIS HAS BEEN LOCATED WITHIN ONE OF MY TOWERS OF MODELS FOR A FEW DECADES NOW.

THE COLORS POP AND THE GRAPHICS STILL DISPLAY REALLY NICELY ON THIS "ORIGINAL" BOX!

I HAVE HAD THIS STASHED AWAY WITH A FEW HUNDRED (TO THOUSANDS) OR SO ADDITIONAL MODELS THAT I HAVE OWNED OR HAVE COLLECTED OVER THE PAST 5 PLUS DECADES.

I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE E-BAY WORLD. I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE. I TEST EVERYTHING PRIOR TO LISTING THEM AND ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO SENDING THEM OFF. I DO THIS SO WE WILL BOTH BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT, IT'S THE ONLY WAY I DO THINGS! THIS SCHUCO BUGGY WILL NOT NEED TO BE RE-TESTED AS I DO KNOW ITS WHOLE LIFE'S HISTORY AND I AM 100% SURE THAT YOU WILL BE VERY PROUD TO OWN THIS MODEL AND TO ADD IT TO YOUR COLLECTION.
 
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA E-BAY MESSAGING AND I WILL DO THE REST!
