Yes!! Here we go!! Bruce is a good name, especially after Meyer! It’s not a bad thing to do at all. I thought it was early when I seen the swingaxle. If ya need anything let me know!! There’s always surprises in the tunnels. 😁
HEY ! I Won something ! Thank you Jason ! I am glad that you are able to gain from my comments. The VW project is another that I have a history with. I currently have two full gage cars I want to rebuild as well as a bug. I think one of the tube frames is going to get a V6 engine, We shall see. Thank you again for the prize. Be Safe and Well
Your welcome,Thankyou for being here and contributing to my projects. Could you send me your address and Super clean will send you your prize my email is tracieroy@comcast.net
Great vid bud,i own a VW 1967 FF Buggy,ive done loads of work to myn,a good mod is adjustable rear spring plates,just makes it easier to get it sitting right,good time to ad when replacing the rear bushes. One you own one of these you wont want to sell,so do a good job to start with,so much fun.Dont skip getting the gearbox checked out,(many skip this) i replaced syncros + loads of other internal stuf,including reverse gear,known to get worn.Nothing worse than putting everything together to find gearbox probs,trust me i know!! Take your time,good luck.The Buggy community will always help & advise.
Thanks again J, I know when it was built many years ago it was gone through. Do you think it still needs to be gone through again?I know the owners barely drove it
@@royworks28Thats a difficult one to answer,this is my take,these VW based buggies are relatively easy to work on,if you have time to learn,do everything yourself,that way you know its done right,and if you have a prob down the line ,you will know how to sort it,i dont know the previous restorers,were they throw it together guys/girls, or proper builders? the amount of info on the web should get you 100% there, i and others will try and help.I know my buggy inside and out and it didnt take me long to learn the process.I dont know how far you have got on this,but having watertight conectors for the engine electrics is a must,it also means taking the engine out is a simple unplug,then 4 bolts!!! Also i dont know what fuel your going to use,but make sure the hoses are good quaility,i used Coden SAE J30 R9 rated stainless braded,but i have 2x twin dellorto carbs on my bug.Chip away slowly and you will have a great bug.
I'm honestly wondering why so many people seem to be hell bent on having a genuine Meyers Manx. Who cares? I personally think that one of the coolest features of fiberglass buggies is that there is a vast number of bodies that each have their own personalities. Some of them are rather cheaply made but again, who cares? Fiberglass is easy to repair and easy to modify. Easy stuff to work with. So Roy, you have a unique car there and I think that you should not worry about it one bit. Bruce is a GREAT name for it. I have not decided what in the world I'm going to name my buggy.
I agree, I mean I have huge respect for his work. But I do like the freedom to do what ever you want with it without being judged. I’m really looking forward to continuing on this project.
Unfortunately not a lot of progress. The project has been a little derailed for now. Which you can see why in my latest video. More progress will be happening soon
Looks like this will be a great to watch. Do you have an engine? Maybe I should get a dune buggy project. My wife doesn't like to ride in my Jeep. From the rainy banks of Table Rock Lake, thanks for the fun. :-)
Call it what you want but from what I've seen about Mr. Meyers, he would not be amused at anything but his Manx (that's with an X) bearing his name. He was rightfully, very bitter after he lost the lawsuit and the patent. Honestly I'd probably call it Caitlyn but admittedly, I have a twisted sence of humor. Oh I forgot to say, I like the project looks like it'll make a nice buggy.
@@royworks28 In an interview with Jay Leno (that I had not seen before I commented) he actually says he let go of all that bitterness. So let's consider my previous comment wrong. I'll admit I was speaking out of turn. BTW, I love your videos and when I get started on my buggy will be watching a lot of them.
@@alleyoop4465 definitely no offense taken, I appreciate input. Especially if I’m doing something wrong. I try to have good intentions but sometimes you can see all the angles. Thanks again for the comments

Great work Jason. Let me know if there is anything you need or if you have any ???????
Awesome thanks Brian, I really appreciate the offer.
Cant wait to follow your build
I should be starting to work on Bruce in about a month or so. Thanks for following along
I think Bruce would be honored.. He not only endorsed his own brand, but put his autograph on all other brands that people requested...
I hope so, he was a great man and innovators
Looks like there is a lot to work with!!
Yes there definitely is. It should be a fun project
Looks like a fun little project!
I think it should be fun, I pretty excited about it. Thanks for being here.I really appreciate it
I’m pretty excited. Hope you have lots of fun with it. 😁
Thanks Dale we’ve been looking forward to it

It would be interesting to see how far along.you are on project..beeings this was 3 years ago....
Unfortunately not a lot of progress. The project has been a little derailed for now. Which you can see why in my latest video. More progress will be happening soon
@@royworks28 now I don't feel so bad..
Payed 6 grand for mine & still no where I want it to be...
I'm working on rebuilding a 1964 dune buggy right now i did the floors
Oh cool,that’s what I’m doing next,thanks for being here and commenting
Looks like this will be a great to watch. Do you have an engine? Maybe I should get a dune buggy project. My wife doesn't like to ride in my Jeep.
From the rainy banks of Table Rock Lake, thanks for the fun. :-)
I do have the original engine, but it is in tough shape. I’m going to try to bring it back.I’m curious how it drives myself

Thanks for the information,I wasn’t sure whether to name it after him for those reasons. But I had good intentions

@@royworks28 I feel the same. I do good when I can. Got a lot to make up for but, you know. Every day is a new start.
Why
Why not?
Wasted time Spraying those lug nuts ....no way that fluid went anywhere useful .
True true, sometimes I get carried away with the lube
Meyers Manx........ God spellin is terrible.
I went to trade school my spelling can be awful 😁
