Manx Club

I have seen this units advertised before and wondered how bright they are?  They look to have 13 SMDs(?).  Has anybody tried a pair ?  Given the circuit board electronics visible, I assume they work with out any additional resistors.  Speaking of circuit boards, you would want to make sure your lens...

Jon,  they look as good as any I have ever seen!  Nice job. Thanks for the great pics and information.

Jon, I'd love to see a picture of your modified turn signal assemblies.

ManxRob, I have given consideration to the Lucas lights. They are a good fit for the Manx and they must be well-made and reliable as I believe they are also used on Cobra Kit cars. However, as you have a preference for them, I have the same for the "bullet" design lights. Thanks for taking...

Lee and David,

Would you please see the picture below and tell me
if this is the type of signal you used on your Manx?



If so, how does it mount to the fender?

Does anyone know exactly which model year/s Ghia(?) or Type 3(?) "bullet" shaped front turn signal light assemblies fit the flat surface on the Manx front fender just beneath and slightly outboard of the headlight?  I know some are not flat enough to use, but I don't know which fit the su...

[FONT="Tahoma"] David, I have 17 different Hot Wheels Manxes, counting the 3 variations of the gold and 2 variations of the silver, plus the newly issued Race World K-Mart version which is blue with white interior and yellow tinted windshield. See the one in front of the pack in the pictur...

[FONT="Tahoma"] As I understand it, the currently available Weber dual 40mm carbs are made in Spain (?) and their quality is considered to be less then when they were made in Italy. So, I'm looking at the EMPI dual 40mm carbs (made in China and $250-300 less a kit then the Webers) and wond...

[FONT=Tahoma] We had a great time at FunFest 2008. Met Don Giovanoni and his wife, and was with them when Bruce Meyers paid a surprise visit on Sunday. His Signature Manx 74 is very well made in the Classic-style and Don deserved to be honored by Bruce as having the best Manx. [/FONT] http://www.tea...

[FONT=Tahoma] Does anyone have any experience or knowledge as to the quality and performance of the hydraulic lifter and cam kit for sale by MOFOCO in their HotVW Magazine ads?[/FONT]

Looking for good ideas on attaching the debris screen to the doghouse fan shroud. (See picture below.) Is welding a sheet metal lip around the inlet hole the best way ? What about clearance to the Manx body? Does anyone know the space measurement? Thanks for any help you can give. http://www.teampen...

[FONT=Tahoma]I think, besides the Type1 turn signals, (top of fender mount), the others (bullet-type) used on the old/classic (1960s) manxes were Ghia or Type3. Does anyone know the exact year/years for the Ghia and for the Type3?[/FONT]

[FONT=Tahoma]Gary, sorry I can't help you on the fire extinguisher mount issue, (haven't got that far yet with my build), but sure would appreciate some specifics on your seat belt roll bar anchor mounting, e.g., threaded or bolted, size and strength rating of hardware, did you maintain some rotati...

David, these are drawings with measurements of the flanges which came with my siggy kit. Hope they are helpful.

David, this is one of two collars that came with my siggy kit.
