So I've got this pan set up and thinking of doing a Meyers Manx buggy on it. Let me know what you all think. I know I'm going to probably have to change the tires. Glad to be here and I'll post more pics as it progresses.

That's a great start to an "Assembled Vehicle Using a Manufactured Prefabricated Body" build. ;-)

Great start Texas6881! Do you already have a body for it? And if you do, and it's a Manx, please let us know how it handles in the dunes once you get it finished! Oh yeah, we're gonna need a bunch more pics! Keep em comin dude and good luck with your build.

Good one Ken!

I don't have a body yet, but looking at ordering one in the next week. I have already been in contact with Paige at Meyers Manx and she has been a great help with all my questions. I will work on more pics later today and they will be sized correctly.hahahaha

That looks like its going to be a really nice build. Where in Katy are you? Did you stay high and dry with the flooding? I'm over at Mason and Franz area.

Having some issues with the seat tracks. Meyers Manx and PRP both say they mount directly to the factory seat tracks but for the life of me I can’t figure it out. Any help is appreciated.
