The country dune buggy (Country Buggy) is the car which made much of development, the barren land running performance on the basis of the platform of the made beetle in an Australian corporation of Volkswagen.
Summary
Volkswagen Oost LARA dia (Volkswagen Australasia Ltd.) started the design of the car suitable for a rough traffic condition of Austria in 1967. This car named country dune buggy or type 197 was designed in Clayton (Clayton) factory of VW, Australia by VW, Rudy Hz mer (Rudi Herzmer) of President Australian Corporation and engineer Kiril Harcourt (Cyril Harcourt) of Volkswagenwerk AG. who were a development person in charge.
The country dune buggy misappropriated the engine of the beetle made in Australia and the platform and the front wheel axle with a gearbox from a beetle. The reduction gear rear wheel swing axle on was diversion from the first transporter (1950-1967 years).
I should have assumed a country dune buggy an amphibian for the design of the material, but it was the car of this form by the instruction of the German head office.
The production of country dune buggies began in July, 1967, and the export to several countries of Philippines, Singapore, New Zealand and other Pacific began, too.
The country dune buggy was sold by a name "サクバヤン" (Sakbayan) which was bag word of "ササクヤン" (Sasakyan, will of the car) and "Bayan" (will of Bayan, a nation or the country) of the Tagalog in the Philippine market. In movie "black mom, white mom" (Black Mama, White Mama) of the PAM glial appearance, several country dune buggies were used as a car of the police. These cars were サクバヤン, and this movie was really photographed in the Philippines.
VW, the Australian country dune buggy attracted attention from the head office of Wolff's Buruk, and one or two were sent to the head office for an evaluation. In fact, I was developing type 181 that was an original model to become the competing car of the country dune buggy in the VW head office.
The figure of the country dune buggy which I hung a canvas hood made in CM of Australian Coca-Cola televised from 1969 when an Australian band named "executive" (The Executives) appeared looked it to you clearly.
The country dune buggy did not put big success in having gone the point of the taste in the market at the time too much and having had a problem of the reliability early.
The country dune buggy became stopping producing it in 1969 only by only 1,956 having been made. The country dune buggy remains only in a minimal number, but, in サクバヤン, is done restore to meet the growing interest to an original beetle now in the Philippines.
