Manx Club

Part of my build included the addition of driving lights to the front bumper. In addition to the aesthetics and appropriateness for a true duel sport buggy, they can be very useful in the right circumstance. After doing a little desert driving I came to realize that amber lenses or lights were prob...

Wow, that's some crazy good artwork. I really like those wheels too. Nice Tow'd.

Part of our long-termed vision and plans for our newly rebuilt Zarkov Meyers Manx was to be able to do long distance travel without sacrificing (much) with the amount of luggage, spare parts, and tools that my wife and I could carry with us. Many years ago I built a storage box that I thought would...

From time to time we see vintage Hurst shifters come up for sale in the various marketplace sites on the internet. While these devices were very plentiful, at least in the 60's and 70's, the original Hur...

Since this was a Zarkov Industries build, every fine detail was considered right down to the on/off temp switch for the radiator fans. Many are using a toggle switch to turn the fans on/off, or even just wiring the fans up to the switched power off of the ignition. Dr. Z drilled and tapped a Vintag...
