Manx Club

I guess I have close to $8,000.00 in my manx but that doesn't count the things such as the leather sofa, chair, and attoman along with the other trinkets that I had to purchase when ever my wife saw a new box show up. So if you add that stuff in then it becomes an astonomical figure that I do not ne...

Bill I still have that spare that I told you about. It would need a carb since I sold it to madmanx.

Bud We did use the other side curtains as a pattern but we didn't make them zip down while they are on. The side curtains on my first manx back in the 70's didn't zip down all the way so I didn't make these. I did use pictures of that top and all your pictures of yours and combined them to come up w...
