mustang1989 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Now that's a cool little build. Nicely done Dave!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doorsovdoon Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Funky little build! Reminds me of a little battery operated Baja bug I had as a kid with a flower on the hood. It would head toward the wall, flip over, and return repeat! Sweet looking mobile, very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I just didn't like the way the photos turned out. They were pretty bad, but I recently purchased a newer version of Corel PaintShop and was able to fix them up quite nicely. So, after a rather lengthy delay here the photos of my AMT Meyers Manx. The old 36 HP Doghouse with some added detail. Some chassis detail. The flower decals are from the Revell VW Bus kit. Instead of the plastic nerf bars provided by the kit, I fashioned a set out of paperclips. I eventually added a license plate... and removed the water spot on the rear window. I made a wooden deck to go in the area where the "rear seat" was supposed to be. I remember seeing one like this long ago. Dash detail... and some pretty blue shock absorbers. I think they came from K-Mart. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.
