manx hardtop

Post by 90volts »

anyone have a pic of the hartop in the tan color? trying to see what color to go with. and i'm a bit worried that my windshield being raked back a bit will cause a problem with mounting. easily adjustable? going to go with a new windshield, new rollbar and the top. i'd like to get the top in a flowery 60s kind of look. i've seen them in pics of back in the day. anyone know how they were done? painted, fabric, whatever? thanks.

That's Jacky Morrell's garage in France. How cool is that. 4 manx buggies in there including a monocoque and a towd. How I'd love that for myself.
