Wow! I'll check if there are any Manxes with later numbers. Did you actually attend the auction?

Yes I went with my Dad, got to pick which color. If I remember right choices were Metalic Red, Green or Gold. Went with the red even came with the dipper (engine cover) thing.
I have that same flier and gave a color copy to Bruce and Winnie about 10 or 12 yers ago. |

Now I am waiting on delivery of all new Parts from Manx Inc . So I am going to start breaking down the Tow'd , and get it ready to send it to Vince in OBX. |

I just received my new PRP Tow'd Seats today , I was lucky to win a PRP Stuff bag with a $ 100.00 gift certificate at Big Bear last year , so it cut the cost , Boy are they nice and will look great on my Robins Egg Blue Towdster , when it is finished , I will be binging it next Thursday to Vince ( Surfnc ) in the Outer Banks and he will be doing the rebuild for me and painting it.
So what do you think you Like?

Those are cool and all but I am not sure about the seat frame...they look a little "country" and you are going to have to cut holes in the tub to let the legs fit
They look sharp..can you take a detail shot of the detail stitching...is it sewn or heat staked? |

Thanks for the info Marc! I'll be sure to follow the build. Thought you had already taken it down there and I had somehow missed that.
