I have one at the house , look for a I.D. number on the right side up under the dash on the fire wall . It should read -Breman Speed Equ. then a number . Mine is BSE 1077 .Berrien Buggy now has the molds for the hoods ,side pods an top . There is two types of hoods and the tops now have opera windows on the sides . The body mold is no longer . Glen

Can the hood style be swapped out for a newer more manxish style? Interested in selling the buggy?

Glen Carlos's Buggy originally came from Bremen in Indiana. It still has a sticker on the top that says Citation 2 Bremen Indiana. I read on Berriens site that the molds were in too bad of shape to reproduce the buggy at this time. Chris, This is a Citation as well with a more traditional hood. But as said they no longer produce the Citation body's But they have a Nostalgia body that i think looks nice. The Lancer is also a nice one. I was looking for a Sandshark body to build because I like that style alot. Citation   Nostalgia  Lancer  There are other popular buggy bodies out there. The tub club guys know alot more about them also check www.dunebuggyarchives.com/ for a complete listing of tubs |

I talked to the owner of Berrien Buggy last year @ the Bug Run about the Citation molds and he said for every one request for a Citation body he gets 40 requests for the Nostaiga Body. The hoods are interchangeable , Now my dash is a full all the way across type not the tear drop offers room for the radio mount or glove box . There is three types .My chaise is all rebuilt with new pans ,the tranny has been gone thru (67 Ghia an 60 title) The body all repairs have been made and setting in primer . And is in the DBA . I also have the Citation name tags that go on the side pods . Chris are you asking me if my buggy was for sale  I have had it for 9 years now but due to life's little ups and downs it not done yet , But if would like to come and look at it , ? Glen |

The 2 that your referring to is that the two little strips by the name ?? If so I have talked to one of the owners of Bremen Speed Equ. in Bremen Ind. last year who built these things back in the good old days , that's only for looks Mine has the same thing .

Thats interesting Glen, I dont think I am the only one to call it a Citation2. Thats what it looks like its called so thats what I called it. |

Chris , I'm not doing anything with it , but I love the looks of it . Maybe it time to pass it on ? I have a 1966 Chevelle Wagon also just sitting , that does wild hole shots . "Smokin" as far as value , Value is determined between a buyer and a seller . I live between Bangor and South Haven out in the sticks . If you would like to take a look come on out . Dustin , That's what it look like to me also , and after doing some digging an got a name and then a number , Talking to the old man was so cool .
