This one is mine:
http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/for/3040256993.html This is a genuine Meyers Manx dune buggy with the (1968) serial number plate and (circle R) nose badge still attached. I purchased it in 2006 as an original, worn but well built buggy, and spent several years renovating it into the buggy I wanted to build in 1969. The original metal-flake finish has never been painted, although it does have some spot fiberglass repairs that are primed. It has a nice 'patina'. It is street legal in Washington state, with working turn signals, brake lights, horn, wipers and brake lights. I last drove it the summer of 2010 just before the plates expired. It is based on and titled as a 1967 VW Bug. It runs, handles and stops great around town, and is a comfortable highway cruiser. It has enough power to more than keep up with traffic. It is not a show car in its present form, but it is a solid, unmolested, original Meyers Manx ready for its new owner to use as is, or take to the next level. I no longer have time to devote to this old Manx, and need the space. Highlights include: * Crown adapted, 1967 Corvair 110hp engine 164CI, (that's 2670 cc's!). "Old school" American horsepower! * Heavy duty clutch. * Custom 'Rancho' built VW short axle HD transmission with custom gearing. * Lowered front suspension with softened spring rates. * Raised transmission mounts, to lower the rear suspension and maintain wheel camber. * Stewart-Warner gas 'buggy heater'. * Lowered seats & relocated shifter. * New wiring harness. * New chopped windshield. I have the original (rare) windshield frame available. * Custom fiberglass hardtop, not mounted. I have a mold for the original hardtop available.   Modern touches for safety include: * 4 wheel disc brakes. * Seat belts. * Halogen headlights. * Lights wired for towing.
