Nah a Budgy is a version of the Alto with a 'fun top' style opening roof.

Well first we need to establish whether you have an Alto Budgy or MightyBoy Squirt!

I might be confused, but from memory the Budgy has most of the roof panel removed, with a canvas panel inserted; so there are no structural changes. From what you are saying about your Alto it sounds like the rear windows and tailgate have been removed?

Any chance of seeing some photos?
