    Meyers Manx . . .

    . . . love these cars

    Drove one --- years, ago, now . . . allegedly the 2nd one ever built. Had a hardtop + a nothing-special VW engine --- with steel screen for a floor (!) . . .

    . . . pretty amazing performance for something as ratty-and-disreputable-looking, as it was . . . but could just about do wheelies in the thing


    Anyway, other mentions . . .

    Then there's the one that Sotheby's sold at Amelia, a few years back . . .

    Kinda curious what These Guys have in mind --- a Manx is so 'elemental' . . .
