I have all the videos of this buggy on a play list so it is easy to see all the steps I took.

My dad built a meyers manx back in 1970 This brings back memories😊😊😊

Coming along nicely 👍😎

Making quick work of this Matt. Color of the body goes nicely with the fresh chassis.

The Manx that Randy had did have a square tube frame under it . But he took it out to a lake and would jump it !!!

After the body stuff comes the fun stuff.

That buggy is going to be a blast.

I made a sturdy bracket to support the front of my tank as well, the movement was causing a lot of fiberglass wear before I did this.

Love the color of this thing. Needs to be totally old school, with the smoothies and moon hubcaps, just like the one Elvis used in one of his movies.

Going more for a 70's vibe than 60's. If it was a body from the I would totally do it with smoothies.

Check your passenger side torsion cap bolts, as when I lined my body up and bolted it down I found I could remove the upper forward bolt to adjust the torsion bar. I had to grind material away from the body to get a wrench in there.

👍

Great build! Where do you place the battery?

Battery will be under the body on the driver's side, by the rear torsion housing.
