This is my Classic Manx 046/100 for consideration for Buggy of the Month. I built it on a Berrien Buggy frame with suspension taken from a $100 rusted out '73 chassis. Using the tube chassis brings up some unique problems, but overall it was a good way to go. I kept things clean and simple. The lights, gauges, and dash trim are from a '65 Bug. The seats are Corbeau¹s mounted on Berrien mounts. Wheels are Weld Draglites. The mirrors came from Moon Equipment, the gas cap from a Triumph TR-6. The engine is a mild 1600 with an Engle 110 cam, dual Solex¹s, Gene Berg valve train and Manx sidewinder exhaust. A dual Weber Gene Berg 1776 is in the works. I had blast building the car. Now we put on lots of miles driving on Daytona Beach, where it always gets a thumbs-up.
