Manx Club

Well, I installed a Ceramic Tri-Mil Bobcat with the quiet muffler. Easy install and top quality; sounds great too. I did have to remove the small hitch portion of the bumper.

I just purchased this buggy and do not like the Cherry Bomb exhaust. I'd like a single muffler "quiet" that would work well on a 1600 DP. I posted a picture of the bumper/rack because it has a hitch sleeve that may be a space issue. If possible, I'd like to keep the bumper. Also thinking T...

Almost a year has passed; we prioritized buying a house before a buggy. Until today, I picked up this running project at a good price. I know it's not a Manx but the goal is to have fun and not go broke doing so. Can anyone tell me the body manufacture? Under the back seat it has the battery well an...

Thanks for all the info. I've now been in a few different buggies and they have been much better. I am hooked...I'm in no hurry and when the right buggy comes along I will know what to expect.

I agree with all comments; at $5000 I do not expect a project front to back top to bottom. I will be looking at another buggy next weekend, hope it goes well since it's a real Manx. I'm in Southern California and feel it shouldn't be too difficult to find what I'm looking for. Are there any Manx mee...

Thanks for the tips; lower tire pressure makes sence. For the car I drove, I don't think it would have helped. The tires were so old they had painted the side walls black. Pictures made the buggy look great, that actual car was awful. I assume any other buggy will now feel much better. I will keep h...

So I test drove my fist buggy yesterday and was not impressed. The front end was loose (wheel bearings & tie rods) also had Bilstein gas shocks. The ride was so rough that driving down the street wasn't enjoyable. Felt as if there was a sold bar in place of the shocks. Needless to say, I didn't ...

I'm Buggy shopping; any pics avail?

Those are two very nice looking buggies.

I decided not to look at this buggy; too many unknowns and I'm not knowledgable enough to make the call. I feel better buying one that has been authenticated or save some money and buy a non Manx buggy and just have fun with it...

Bud, Very helpful information. I greatly appreciate the tips. Look for more pics tomorrow afternoon. I'm going to look at this buggy in person tomorrow; aside from the standard list of items; Is there any other things to check? Take pictures of the following and post them up: Under the front fenders...

Thanks for the posting of pics instructions.


The current owner says it's on a 1956 pan and he could not find body tags.

New to the forum and this will be my first post. My wife and I will be searching for our first buggy, we would like to purchase a real Manx. I have read the information on how to identify a real Manx but feel it is possible to end up with a clone. I'm looking at a Manx that has the front and back e...
