Re: A question and a little help?
Post a request for a Mentor who resides near you and/or find some folks who own buggies near you. Attend any car shows or outings involving buggies. Try to locate a VW shop near you. Ask questions. If you have some mechanical knowledge it's very helpful but there is a learning curve. If you want to ...

Re: VHF Radios
So have we as a group settled on VHF, or is UHF in the mix also? I was looking at one of the 25 watt dual band radios as an option. I would think that would give us the most flexibility for the least amount of money. The MURS frequencies are VHF as described by Vincent. https://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

Re: percieved rarety of value
I would have to say that it is usually a better value to buy what someone else has built rather than building a buggy yourself, especially if you are paying to have all the work done. That said, there is something personal about having a hand in the building of your buggy. Years ago, I took my first...

Re: VHF Radios
The FCC limits the transmitter power on the MURS channels to 2 watts. Just so you know.

Re: Rear View Mirror: justifiable expense, safety & nicely b
I have two of their outside rear view mirrors on my buggy. They are worth the money.

Milo 62,
Joe and Scott reflect the attitude of the vast majority of Club Members. If we took a show of hands, you would find few if any in your camp. Enjoy your buggy.

Re: Huge Mistake, Bruce and Winnie Meyers
Milo 62, First, I agree with Chicago Joe. If you wish to implement a new policy/procedure for the Club, you'll have to get involved to make it happen. Second, I do not own an original Manx. For the past 14 years, I've been driving my DuneRunner buggy at Manx Club Runs. Bruce doesn't seem to mind and...
