Nelon, thanks for sharing,those are great pictures brought back some fond memories, I have not seen them before,wished i had taken more pictures when i was there,also wished i had bought one when i could have had Bruce build me a Monocoque,or even one of the early ones,instead I waited 40 years,paid a lot more,missed a lot of fun,but making up for it now. thanks again.ralphdjeeper,aka crate/man.

I understand that when the Meyers Manx company assets were auctioned in the 70s, the mold for the monocoques was there and included in the auction. I also heard that if you requested, the company would have specially made a one off monocoque, even after they started making floorpan Manxes.
