Some people have all the luck...
Alan found this fine buggy in a field with grass and weeds
growing through every opening.
The body was in very bad shape having been cut in two
and covered in stress cracks. With a bit of determination, lots
of hard work
and a desire to see this buggy finished, Alan learned how to work with
fiberglass.
Three years later Alan has this sweet looking Manx clone. He says he
is still
not happy with it and has future plans to install a roll cage, a top
and to paint
the suspension and transmission to match the body.
Power comes from a 1641 and is delivered by a bus transmission.
His next project....a $10.00 buggy that is in worse shape
than this one was.
Judging by the way this one turned out I cannot wait to see he next
one.
Great work Alan!!
