Hi Everyone, I'm new to the Manx Club. I've been busy putting my buggy back on the road. I rescued it from it's previous life as a sand rail. I live just south of Reno NV in Washoe Valley.

Glad to be here!

Here's my buggy.

Welcome to the site.

You have a very nice looking buggy.

Are you going on the Manx Club Run at Mammoth September 9th with your buggy?

Cool. I'm doing an engine transplant and starting a rebuild. Had to swap to a 1967 block to make the Guys down at the emissions lab at DMV happy. darn Washoe County. They are tougher than CA.

No, I won't be able to make it this time. Have fun! I'll touch base after the weekend. The balloon races will be running me ragged.

I think I just dropped out of an alien spacecraft. Somehow the buggy got registered in my absence. Wow!
