Spare part for a P.L. buggy help any1?


Hi there,
roughly 10 or maybe 11 years ago I bought a Peter Lynn buggy . haven't used in years and last week I decided to show to my kids (10 & 6) how cool their dad could be riding in the wind ;)
Well to cut short, the show never took place since I am missing a part the "Downtube" and therefore cannot connect the front-fork to the rest of the buggy. I have already tried with the local P.L. wholsaler in my city (Rome) but the new Downtubes available as spare for the P.L. buggy wont fit my front fork. Actually the height of the cilindrical part do not fit, too tall. Does any1 has specs, measure and/or info on the original P.L. Buggy so that I can have that part made, or even better were I could by the part I am looking for?
Thanks in advance.
Renato

Does your front fork have balljoints that connect the down tube? if so you have a Land Lizzard buggy 1st one made for production that are no longer made the only thing you might be able to do is to look for someone who is parting one out or to out right buy it to have the parts...
Then again it might be a classic buggy that is a 2nd GEN. buggy and I might be able to hunt a couple of them down for you

Howdy Buggy Bro...
If you have an older model PL buggy, I'd suggest going to the source.
Contact the PL folks (via e-mail) in New Zealand.
They have all the jigs for all the models.
I recently had them fabricate an axle for the Original Flexi Buggy (which is also a PL design).
No problem for them, and they come out made better tham what we've been seeing from China.
