Pictures are golden for creating demand for what you're selling.

What exactly is a "Peter Lynn Original Flexifoil Buggy"? Either it is a Peter Lynn buggy, or a Flexifoil buggy. If it is a mixture between Peter Lynn and Flexifoil parts, then I don't think it could be called original....unless original is to imply that it is a one-of-a-kind custom job.

As BB mentioned, pictures are a godsend. If you are having issues uploading pictures onto this old relic of a forum, you could try posting over on Kitebookie.com and then including a link to that site here.

The original Flexifoil Buggy was manufactured in the Peter Lynn factory in NZ.

This is how my beloved " frankinbuggy " started out!

You are sitting almost right between the back wheels and that makes for a crazy loose ride. The straight siderails make for a slightly different feeling as well. I found I needed hockey elbow pads with that added protection on the lower arm because they hit the tires when flying.

1 bolt and I can put this thing in the back seat of the car ! Crazy light. It used to live under my bed !

Mine came with an old school " Springback " back rest. I couldn't imagine riding this buggy without it. You can make one very easily.

Those straight side rails are very similar to my homemade buggy , just suspend a fiberglass school desk seat down between them. Mine has padded straps from the top of the seat back, down to the side rail on each side to where it bends toward gooseneck. Cheap ,comfortable, hardshell butt protection, low center of gravity. Fully tested on the dunes at WBB.
