Manx Club

Here is a link to a message that Mel provided notes and pictures on Hand Laying a Fiberglass Buggy Body . I would have posted them here on the ManxClub, however the heavy restriction of only 4 pictures per message was very limiting and cumberson (for the approximately 60+ pictures). Both Mel and I h...

Well, the curry story will just have to wait, it's best kept to a verbal account, instead of "in print". Maybe you guys will get over here for some Baja fun times or maybe I'll get back over there. In any event, I figured out how to blur the Russ Meyers Manx hood underside, so here that is...

That's the elusive Buggy Pete supervising on the far left. Then Mel, Darren (with his back t...

Mel, Thanks, I had a very good time. Thanks for the GRP lesson, now I just need to get some time to try it myself. Dave, Only 3 complete days of sun on the entire trip (at least Saturday was one of them), and I still enjoyed my time in the UK. Thanks for making the long trip over to Mel's. And, it w...

Mission Accomplished! Our local VW dealership had them. I just got a chance to watch it. Very nice photography. It's certainly a promotional piece. Not too long.

I'll go by the VW dealer again on Monday. They were closed today.

I'll see if I can get my hands one and fix you UK guys up. See ya next Saturday.

Mel, Received the magazine from Tom today. It's currently resting in the "pile of stuff" I'm bringing over. Dave, Mrs. Pierce (Kathy) will be on the trip with me, however, she has her own agenda for Saturday and will be staying around Banbury or there abouts.

I'll be there! The American instigator...

Mel, Hum, that would be interesting! I'm intrigued by the possibilities. Now you've got my gears a'turning. I'll have to see, once I get to your place.

When I did a Google search on "Greg Reed Sport Buggies", here is one of the links that I checked out... Own a piece of automotive history! Interesting that's right here on the ManxClub site! You have to scroll down a bit to see that Greg is mentioned as being located in Santee, CA. Doing a...

I made contact with Tom, gave him my address, he said he would mail it to me, first chance he got, so I can hand carry it over. Don't know if he's mailed it to me yet. On another note, I'll be bringing Dave some center caps from an ebay sale, so if there is anything additional (small items, of cours...

If the postage is too high to the UK, I'm going over there in August and could hand carry it to Mel when I see him. I'm in Santa Barbara, CA 93111. Let me know and I'll send Tom my mailing address.

Thanks for the extra pictures. You did some very nice work on the body, considering the condition of what you started with. Very nice!
