1973 ReplicaKit Makes Meyers MANX vw bug

1973 Meyers Manx
this is the real deal
not a clone 70s wannabe
THE BODY IS AN ORIGINAL MEYERS MANX, THE PAN IS A 1973 BEETLE, IT HAS BEEN
MODIFIED FOR STRENGTH AND RIGIDITY, LOTS AF BRACING IN FLOOR.
this Meyers was restored and built / finished a few yrs ago
and no expense was spared in the process.
Lots of upgrades thru out and almost taken to a Resto Mod
status if you will.
you cant drive this around without getting thumbs up and
attention from everyone, everywhere you go.
And its NOT A TRAILER QUEEN, it was built to drive and
enjoy. Even on the freeway at 70 this vehicle is solid with
none of the usual dune buggy shake etc most have because of
bad design flaws etc.

for that alone. Along with a forged crank, chevy rods, Mahl pistons, New 044
