Hello, This is my submission for consideration for buggy of the month. I recently completed a full restoration on this 69/71 Manx clone in August 2003 taking just over 12 months to complete. The chassis was originally shortened with the '71 IRS installed. The body had 6 different coats of paint, which was all sanded down to the original gel coat - a ruby red flake. Side pods were added for aesthetics and lots of chrome bits to give it a little flash. It runs on a rebuilt 1641 with dual Weber 34's and stock transmission. Future plans are to have the soft top resewn and roll bar reinstalled. It received recognition at its first VW show entered this year. I cannot say enough about the enjoyment I have received out of this buggy. Thank you Danny
