I have a 1968 Meyers Manx buggy and I think this thing is cool, well thought out and just enough modern to give it broader appeal.

If I had one I would pull the electric motor out and use it for a garage door opener and put a real motor in it... Some things just shouldn't be fooled with...

Not REAL chrome. “Chrome” plastic wrapping that scratches easily and looks cheap. Chrome needs to die off with the baby boomers. It’s cheap and tacky especially whenever it’s competing with matte black plastic trim. Earth elements will tear this external chrome wrap to shreds.
