4th of july at plymouth rock/tagged Manx

[62kellison]

I drove about 180 miles to Plymouth rock for 4th of july vacation.Unfortunately my buggy wasn't ready(adjusting front leaf springs)..I did however meet a gentleman at my motel that was having a lug nut issue.he fixed it quickly the next morning.It was a beautiful tagged Manx.I believe it was Number 23 If I am not mistaken.He lives nearby(Plymouth).His name is Mike.He may join us on here.He has owned this I believe 6 months..My pics do not do the paint justice.Beautiful red paint with flake.Nice buggy.This is the first tagged manx I have seen since I was a kid.I grew up on Plymouth rock and everyone had a manx back then in the 70,s......Once again NOT mine.But a beautiful tagged manx……… Sean

Q-Dog,he let me sit in it and try the seats out.They were comfortable.I had just as much leg room where they were positioned(actually I had more leg room)than my miata seats.His seats were not all the way back either,like mine are.I will be switching to this style at some point.i am 6 foot and 252 pounds and I fit perfect.I also preferred his 14 inch tall empi shifter, verses my 12 inch tall empi.much better seating and shifting,in my opinion. I really would like to get my hands on a original tagged manx body...…..SEAN

I still love the look of them old school cragars with the ss center cap.
