I believe at one time before the company closed you could get a stainless steel panel that covered just the center portion of the dash, that had a pre-cut hole for the speedometer, but I've never seen it in a catalogue or advertisment. I've never heard of the company ever having any type of glove box that installed in the dash.

Looks like it's gone now. Did you happen to right click and save the pics you are talking about? If you did can you send me an email with the pics attached or post the pics here on the Manx Club. Thanks.

when i went to look at it again it was pulled from ebay.it looks like it was scam someone was using an ebay users name to get someone to send them money for a bogus auction. the buggy was yellow and they said it was one of the first 150 manx verified by the manx club. it did look real ,there also was a blue buggy in the garage in the back ground. it had stickers on the rear fender that said RIBBA 392. auction was location Elgin ,IL but the address to send the money was Los Angelos , CA

I know the guy that owns that buggy. He is holding on to it, until he gets a high dollar offer. The ad on ebay isn't his, just his buggy. He is a honest guy and wouldn't get involved in a scam. This is the third or fourth time in the last month this buggy has shown up on ebay as part of a scam. Better stay away from that one. If anyone is interested in contacting the real owner to purchase the buggy, pm me and I will tell you what I know. Thanks Rick
