Tow'd frame reinforcements

Does anyone have a drawing showing recommended frame reinforcements for a Tow'd?
Photos would be almost as good. I'm particularly interested in the connections to the original frame plus to the front and rear suspension.

Re: Gecko Green Manxter #188 Frame Restoration

Thanks for the posts that help keep this forum active. Have to admit that I'm disappointed that a club activity is so poorly supported by the membership.

Re: Hope this Forum gets going again.

Same here, check in a few times a week to see the latest updates.
Sadly seems to have lost favor with most so the volume of info has diminished considerably.
Even parts info and where-to-buy alerts are now almost non-existent.

I'm curious to see how many read this thread...

Your ingenuity and craftsmanship never cease to amaze me! Seems some of the family farm equipment experience has rubbed off...
Hopefully once this covid business eases Rosemarie and I will get to see this beast up close.
Please make sure you and France stay safe in these difficult times.

Here's hoping all you good boys and girls get all the parts you're needing to progress with your projects.

NORRA 2019

Congratulations to Mike Dario and the 302 team. In spite of some people's defeatist attitudes perseverance DOES pay!
Great job guys (and gals)!
Glad to see the Meyers brand held high!

Re: Manx Club Facebook Users - Say Hello here

I'm on the same page: Facebook is nice and all but like Mike said things are here then gone before you can go back to them. Let's stay here!

Re: Iron Buggy-Save the Texas Dune Buggy Rally

Yup, the spray from big rigs can be worse than the rain.
Not that you southern boys would likely have experienced it but those same conditions are even worse in snow! :crazy:

Re: Vincent & France's new project - Manxter 2+2

So.... almost a year down the road from your last post and I don't recall having heard of a test drive.
Any pics of the current status? Will it see the light of day in 2018? ( As if I am one to talk with a still unfinished Tow'd)

Re: Warfigther Made-Adrenaline Therapy Track Day

Great of you share the info with all! This is a most worthy cause.
Sure wish we were on the other coast for the month so we could participate.
