Below the surface, this Buggy follows the tradition of being based on a VW Beetle frame and drivetrain.
MANX DUNE BUGGY FOR SALE WINDOWS
It is slightly “saggy” in a couple of spots, and the windows are cloudy, but it would offer reasonable protection in wet weather. Also included is a white soft-top that is respectable. It hasn’t reached the point where it requires immediate attention, although the buyer might choose to treat the vehicle to a repaint in the future. The paint holds a respectable shine across most of the vehicle, although it shows deterioration on the front. It is finished in a shade of Brown that features the stereotypical high levels of metalflake in the paint. It presents reasonably well for a survivor of this age, although the buyer might treat it to a cosmetic refresh. He hasn’t been able to confirm whether it is the real deal, so that will be a task for the buyer to tackle. The owner of this beast describes it as a “Meyers Manx-style” Buggy. I have to say a big thank you to Barn Finder Adriano for spotting this beauty for us. The price of admission to this world of automotive enjoyment has been set at $9,500. It is located in Brampton, Ontario, Canada, and is listed for sale here on Craigslist. This 1961 Dune Buggy is another that will slip through my fingers, but you could have more luck on that front than me.
That is quite a wrap coming from a man who has sampled some of the most exotic cars on the planet.
The former host of Top Gear UK, James May, describes them as the most utterly joyous vehicles you can drive. I’m sure that we all have our own automotive Bucket List, and while I have had the privilege to drive some desirable cars during my lifetime, one that has always eluded me is a traditional Dune Buggy.
