Fifer Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 This is my rendition of a manx that I used to see in Albuquerque when I raced motorcycles. It was black but looked like this. Mike

Phirewriter Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 Very cool!! I believe there was an article by Don Emmons about building a replica of the "Purple Potato Chip" dune buggy dragster. Looks very similar to yours. I have the issue, I'll try to find it. If memory serves me he modified a piranha dragster chassis and used a Convair motor.
Fifer Posted October 4, 2016 Author Posted October 4, 2016 I think you were right. This one depicted ran in Albuquerque NM around 1971.Thanks , Mike
espo Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 Looks great. Like something the old Inch Pincher crew out of Riverside California would have raced.
