Overview of 1974 Meyers Manx For Sale by Owner

Back in the 70s, Volkswagen was on a roll with its offerings; its air-cooled lineup of vehicles marked peace amidst troubled times. Out of all the quirky machines leaving factory floors, the Volkswagen Beetle was the king of them all. While the Beetle was iconic, it set the foundation for Bruce F Meyers to create what would be one of the most unique machines built to date, the iconic Dune buggy. Built to whizz past the toughest obstacles and come out looking stylish, owning a dune buggy is a treat. Present today is this lovely 1974 Volkswagen Meyers Manx Dune Buggy; it's a rare piece of machinery and has a reported 37,720 miles on the clock.

Exterior and Interior

Little did the folks over at Meyers Manx know that they were creating a piece of art when crafting the dune buggy from a shortened Volkswagen beetle's chassis. The uber-cool and quirky styling on this 1974 Meyers Manx Dune Buggy is complimented with a Metallic blue exterior; the current owner reports the paint is "like new", with the fiberglass body, this translates to massive weight loss and more performance. Matching the unique design and styling is a set of custom 20" Vercelli wheels that serve as this vehicle's shoes, the unique wheels are wrapped with a fresh set of rubber for better traction when out and about. This 1974 Meyers Manx Dune Buggy's black interior is designed for simplicity and helps boost driver functionality. The black leather seats bring comfort and hold you in place when cruising dunes, and a JBL speaker with Bluetooth connectivity ensures your tunes are done justice.

Engine

Ensuring you feel the wind in your hair and wide smiles, this 1974 Volkswagen Meyers Manx Dune Buggy is an air-cooled 1.6 flat-four motor that purrs along happily when off the beaten path. To ensure this quirky machine from the 70s runs smoothly and in tune, a new carburetor brings smooth power delivery, a new battery to rid of electrical gremlins, and an aftermarket exhaust system to hear that rumble more clearly. Power is sent to this machine's rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission giving you more control.
