| A friend of mine said he know where a Sears buggy is sitting and possibly for sale, I was just wanted to see some pics of some before I go look at it and decide its the body style I want. (its about 70 miles from me) |

| The Sears buggy is anything but 'butt ugly' IMO; as it was one of the many near carbon-copies of the Manx, it is quite attractive. |

| Well, I went to look at it and bought it. Only paid $100 for it with a good title. only thing salvagable is the body though. |

| $100 with a salvageable body & clean title? Well worth it in my book. 8) |

Thanks Fish. I was pretty sure mine was a Sears, but this sealed it!

That looks like Bruce and his Wife Shirley......Not only a copy of the body but they used his own image too.......interesting.
Reason I mentioned........ because I just got done reading his book series and the one that talks about his life has pics of Shirley and him and the likenesses are striking if not the same people........ |

| Slayer needs to find that fabric to make it historically accurate. |
