CERTIFIED AND AUTHENTICATED WITH ITS MANX REGISTRY VIN PLATE AND PAPERWORK -

SIGNED BY BRUCE AND WINNIE MANX

SERIAL NUMBER #1298 INDUCTED INTO THE MANX REGISTRY

THERE ARE MANY DUNE BUGGY'S BUILT TO RESEMBLE A MANX BUT ONLY 1000 ORIGINAL

ONES WERE BUILT - ALL THE SAME WITH A ONE PIECE FIBERGLASS 2 SEATER BODY.

THE DOCUMENTED MANX'S ARE THE TRUE INVESTMENT COLLECTIBLE CLASSICS!

IT WAS CALLED A MANX DUE TO ITS STUBBY TAIL WITH AN EXPOSED ENGINE, LIKE THE BREED OF CAT!

THEY WERE DESIGNED AND BUILT BY CALIFORNIA ENGINEER, ARTIST, BOAT BUILDER AND SURFER BRUCE MEYERS IN HIS FOUNTAIN HILLS, CALIFORNIA FACILITY FROM 1964-1971

BRUCE PASSED AWAY AT THE AGE OF 94

OWN A GROOVY PIECE OF AMERICANA HISTORY AND ONE THAT WAS FEATURED IN MANY HOLLYWOOD FILMS INCLUDING SEVERAL STARRING ELVIS PRESLEY AND STEVE MCQUEEN.

HIS ICONIC POP CULTURE DUNE BUGGY DESIGN DOMINATED THE DUNE RACING SCENE IN ITS TIME - WINNING 39 OF 41 SLALOM RACES AND BREAKING ALL THE RECORDS.

EARLY IN ITS PRODUCTION MEYERS WANTED EVEN MORE AND CREATED THE TOW'd

MODEL WHICH YOU SEE HERE.

IT WAS SO NAMED AS THE INTENTION WAS TO "TOW IT" TO THE DUNES AND THUS

ELIMINATE THE FRONT AND REAR FENDERS.

THE TOW'd MODEL WAS THE OFF-ROAD THRILL-SEEKERS DREAM AND IN ADDITION IT WAS A GROOVY VEHICLE AND QUITE FRANKLY WAS THE PREDECESSOR TO THE MODERN DAY SAND-RAIL.

ONLY 1000 TOW'd WERE MADE AND HOW MANY STILL EXIST?!

A TRUE INVESTMENT GRADE CLASSIC!

IN ADDITION, THIS IS A VERY CORRECT AND ORIGINAL EXAMPLE!

WHATS VERY COOL IS THAT THIS MANX IS CLEAN ARIZONA TITLED AS A "1965 MEYERS

MANX DUNE BUGGY"

ITS ARIZONA ASSIGNED VIN PLATE OF AZ379524 NOTES IT WAS FIRST TITLED IN JUNE, 1965!

THE ENGINE IS THE CORRECT "TYPE 1 - FO" WW 1300CC USA ONLY, WHICH IS RATED AT 50HP!

THIS IS MORE THAN THE 1600CC DISPLACEMENT ENGINES PRODUCED AFTER IT.

THIS IS MORE THAN THE 1600cC DISPLACEMENT ENGINES PRODUCED AFTER IT.

IT TRULY WAS BUILT AS A SAND DUNE HOTROD.

INCLUDED ARE MANY RESTORATION RECEIPTS FROM

"KARLS CUSTOMS" IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA AND JUST RECENTLY IT WAS GIVEN A FULL SERVICE AND FRESH DETAIL. SO IT IS SUPER CLEAN, TIDY AND FRESH - READY TO SHOW OFF AT ANY SHOW!!

NEW SEAT CUSHIONS AND OVERALL ITS IN SUPURB CONDITION

THE ORIGINAL MILES ARE UNKNOWN BUT WITH ITS AIR-COOLED 4-CYLINDER VW ENGINE,

4-SPEED TRANSMISSION AND NEW OFF-ROAD TIRES - IT RUNS OUT STRONG, SHIFTS AND HANDLES GREAT, WITH TONS OF POWER!

IT IS ALSO STREET LEGAL IN MANY STATES

THESE RARELY COME UP FOR SALE AND REPRESENT CALIFORNIA AND AMERICANA

SURFER CULTURE

WHY NOT DRIVE A RESTORED - REAL ORIGINAL MANX!!

NOT ONLY IS IT A GREAT INVESTMENT CLASSIC, BUT IN COMPARISON, IT MAKES THE MODERN GOLF CART CRUISER LOOK AND PERFORM LIKE A 4-DOOR SEDAN VS THIS BEACH AND SAND FERRARI.
