Review and Photos by Alan Mann \"Alan<\/a><\/p>\n

The Meyers Manx dune buggy is a small recreation vehicle, designed initially for desert racing by Californian engineer, artist, boat builder and surfer Bruce F. Meyers. It was produced by his company, B. F. Meyers & Co. from 1964 to 1971. It was produced as a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Kit Car\u00e2\u20ac\u009d applied to the shortened chassis of Volkswagen Beetles. The car line dominated dune racing in its time, breaking records immediately, and was eventually also released in street-oriented models, until the company’s demise due to tax problems after Meyers’s departure. A Meyers Manx dune buggy is driven by Elvis himself in the memorable 1960’s movie, “Live a Little, Love a Little.” It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a yellow street Manx with all the custom features you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d expect on a retro dune buggy.<\/p>\n
