Here's a fun video from 1970 on building a dune buggy.  They used a Kellison body, which appeared to be a near clone of a Manx.

I saw that yesterday.

d00d looks like an extra in the original Star Trek.   Best part was when the guy with the pipe stopped by to help.  He later became the Gorton's Fisherman.

We had one of the Empi buggies which was a knockoff to the Manx but a little more refined for street use with side pods and engine cover,
