Instead of asking how to talk your wife out of something she's obviously passionate about, you may want to ask how we can help you deal with your fears. You could always discuss designs/color schemes together and in doing so, you may be able to SWAY her in a direction that will make you all happy, b...

My experience with the original formula was that there was a very brief period of "white out" for lack of a better term when running the wipers. Since I hardly ever run the wipers int he buggy, this would be good to re-visit. I like you bringing the newer product to my attention. I'll have...

Mike, no problem on the delay. Now I'm stumped.... Meyers produced two different type of bodies for this chassis. I know the rear sections are the same. I thought, based on the picture I have of the blue CV that the body to pan contour followed close to the original VW pan. I understand what you are...

Hey Mike, I got your pictures. Thanks so much. Its interesting to see how your cage was tied into the frame, as I have never seen a ManxVair with a cage. In looking at your pictures... I see that the body is the same where it meets the frame as well as around the tunnel. It appears as though there i...

Thank you so much. Jay

[QUOTE="manxvair;15359"]Jay while reading your posts on DBA you brought up the differences in the front of cc & cv type bodies, I have an authentic cv manx #133 and the front firewall area looks identical to the cc type (square over the tunnel) the napolean hat that i believe you are r...

Wow, so there are only 9 registered on the site. How do I go about registering my manx on the site? Jay

This might be of interest. Just last week I was contacted by Pete through the DBA. He has a CC as well and is from CA. He emailed Winnie in April 2008 (Before he bought his CC buggy) and this is the response: Paul, Actually there were 2 different Corvair models called ManxVair's. One for using a Cor...

Looks like I can post now! :) Thanks for posting my reply Nelson. I'm wondering if they would have serialized the bodies as they got sold or as they were popped out of the mold. I'll have to ask Dave (The P.O.) who he spoke to when he went to California. His memory is like a computer. He seemed to r...

Hi Guys, really sorry I haven't been back to check the thread progress before now! What was I thinking? I'm usually on the DBA.

I recently purchased a Manx-Vair CC (All Corvair chassis) I was wondering if anyone has any type of production numbers for the Manx-Vair. If it is possible to know what numbers were produced for the CV chassis as well as the CC chassis, that would be wonderful. Thanks for any help or assistance. Jay
