Turned out really Nice Jim!

Thank you, Dave.

Way cool Jim, your builds keep getting better. Was this a fun kit to build ????

[crazyjim]

Thank you very much, Chris. I had fun with the kit, but it's so small. The build would have been easier if I didn't lose the little collector that fits between the pipes from the engine to the exhaust.

Was it that the parts are too small, or we are getting too old to see them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[crazyjim]

What do you mean "we", Chris? Being in your early 40's makes you a pup being viewed from the far side of the 60's. Oh to be young again . . . .

Nice job. I like the interior. The Mustang taillights were popular on these back in the day.

[crazyjim]

Thanks, Jason. The Mustang light were very popular. The 1:1 Empi Imp I had used them. You really can't see it in the pic, but the interior floor was sprayed with Rustoleum texture paint - gives the interior a multi-color bedliner look.

looks KQQL with those wheels and tires...

[crazyjim]

Thanks, Neal. My Imp had big & littles like that and I liked the look.

[Jeremy Jon]

Fun looking build Jim, looks good!!

[crazyjim]

Thank you, Jeremy. It was a fun build.

[TFchronos]

That looks so awesome, very nicely done!

[crazyjim]

Thank you very much, Jonathan.

[Dominik]

sweet buggy - it looks so small. well done Jim!

[crazyjim]

Thanks, Dominik. It is small. A normal VW is small and then you shorten the frame 14 1/2 inches for a dune buggy.

Hi Jim, I have just a question: where did you find your pulley cover ?

Good job ! I will post mine soon ....

[crazyjim]

Thank you, ??? I would have used your name but it's not there, like it's supposed to be.

The pulley cover was in the kit box.

[ddk]

Sorry, my first name is Didier.

Thank you Jim, I didn't think to see in the box !!! I was looking for this piece for a future project IMP buggy.

You can see my Meyers Manx on a French Forum before I post it here : http://koolestkruzers.smileyforum.net/t11032-wip-buggy-meyers-manx-amttermine-01-08-2013

[crazyjim]

No problem, Didier. Glad you fixed it and welcome to the forum.

The blue buggy looks like a 1:1 and is very nice. I like the work you have going on with the kit although I can't read a word of what it says. Post some pics.

[crazyjim]

Thanks, Carl. I really appreciate it.
