We drive a Meyers Manx Dune Buggy with a Radial Airplane Engine!

[@username-mk8gf]

Aero balance from 3 cylinders sounds like a better deal than the inline 4. I believe the 3 cylinder radial doesn't even need master slave conrod linkage. I would use the planetary cam gear as a two speed gearbox, 1:1 from the sun, 2:1 from the planet carrier, then that could be compounded by a 3 speed gearbox for 9 speeds.

Haha... "oh BTW, there's a Ferrari F40 on the lift behind me..."

My Karmann Ghia just made 200HP on the rolling road. with a 2276 VW engine.

Too fun. Miss mine. The Thing is close, though, and easier to live with (better hyway skilz). Would have liked more engine vid while driving. I used to get wind burn on the hyway. So dont miss that part 😂

The Big BMW.... Of course, what else would you put in it.

[@davidj.jorgensen4828]

I have a Original 66 Meyers Tow’d w/swing axle that is available if you would be interested. Bruce’s second design that is lighter that a Manx

[@supertedogpriken]

it`s so crazy to think about that this car(and car like this) has gone from "the best off-road car in the world" To be a Sunday driver for old guys getting into there midlife crisis.....

[@Dazedviper1]

The smoking tire brought me here. For 120k its surprising Matt bought this, but what I know. Nothing about this "kit special" says anything at this price. I'm not knocking the smiles for miles but the price of an official radial Manx says it will be worth it.

[@troygalbraith625]

Have you got another BMW R18 engine ?

[@formercobra2705]

[@kondur05]

25000 por un motor? Por mucho que me guste, es demasiado

[@SeanWhite]

It is not an aircraft engine. The first known radial was installed in a motorcycle.
