Considering a change of direction so offering this buggy body shell for sale. It is a Manx 1 made for me a couple of years ago by Rob at East Coast. Finished  in Meadowbrook Brilliant Bordeaux .025 flake with separate black dash. It has been trial fitted and holes drilled for floorpan fixings and 1200 Beetle rear lights, otherwise as supplied and unused. Very hard to properly capture the 
appearance of the flake in photos.
Cost me around £1500 plus the cost of 5kg of flake as it was not a stock colour.
Hoping for around £1250?
Thanks for looking
laurie

Yes, just going to go with a different colour if possible. I love this colour and spent months choosing it from hundreds of options but having lived with it over the last couple of years I realise it is too close the the House of Kolors flake I used on the JAS buggy I did in the early 2000s. I am really not going to do another one so though I should probably go for the change now while the chassis is coming together rather than once it is finished.

No it's a regular Manx shell, they're all short wheelbase.

If it's one of Rob's then it won't be tagged but it will be top quality and probably the last one to be pulled from his Signiture/Classic Manx mold.

It'll fit that length chassis with only a little bit of trimming. Julian's old Manx 2 started life as an old Rat.
