I went to a hotrod swap meet a couple weeks ago. There was a fellow selling various art signs he made using a CNC program. He had a buggy design that I ordered and received a few days ago. Very cool I think.
It is 22 x 15 inches.

Mine is 2mm thick steel which according to the conversion table I found is 14 gauge. It is very sturdy. Good quality. Painted black.
He does many other vehicles. I am buying one for a friend.
I am not associated with this fellow at all. Just posted for others to see. I don't want to get in trouble for advertising. _________________ My wife said I never listen to her.

Nah, just curious. I can cut aluminum on my CNC, but he must have a plasma cam or laser. |

Possibly a Ball Joint Front Beam, so, '66 or later Chassis. Windscreen looks to be installed backwards, so that will need to be turned around. No badge bump on the hood, so, very close manx Clone. Seats appear very wide and may cause tightness in working the E-Brake handle.
But, if the price is right, should make a nice buggy.
I too would like to have one. _________________ Bad News Racing 2018 NORRA 1000 3rd in Class

Everyone is gifted. Some just do not open the package.
Looks like it was painted with a live chicken,polished with a brick and buffed with a pine cone |

No Paul, it was meant as a joke. Usually some threads start out "what do you think of this buggy". _________________ Bad News Racing 2018 NORRA 1000 3rd in Class

Must be late Joe, missed that one altogether....
And here I thought I had a decent sense of humor!
Or are you still waterlogged from Carlisle, not thinking straight???

I really wanted to buy one of these art pieces when I was in Canada on my trip in the buggy from West Virginia to Alaska and back, but because of a rushed schedule before departing, and a laid out trip that did not have much side trip time to spare, I missed out.
Would still love to have one. _________________ Bad News Racing 2018 NORRA 1000 3rd in Class
