Cute Kit: 1973 Volkswagen Meyers Manx SR

The Meyers Manx was the original dune buggy for the unwashed masses, but the roofless, doorless, and dry-weather-only setup isn’t for everyone (even the unwashed, who probably appreciated an occasional rain shower). A few years later Bruce Meyers designed the SR (short for Street Roadster) which added a small top and scissors doors to the basic Beetle chassis with fiberglass tub. Today’s SR has some cool square headlights (most early SR’s had round lights, but the later 1978+ hood used rectangular sealed-beams) and is mostly complete, but will need some mechanical work. Find this 1973 Volkswagen Meyers Manx SR bidding for $15,100 with 2 days to go in Sadieville, KY via ebay motors.
