The Meyers Manx dune buggy was designed initially for desert racing by Californian engineer, artist, boat builder and surfer Bruce F. Meyers. It was produced by his Fountain Valley, California company, B. F. Meyers & Co. from 1964 to 1971, in the form of car kits applied to shortened chassis of Volkswagen Beetles.The car line dominated dune racing in its time and was eventually also released in street-oriented models, until the company's. New vehicles inspired by the original Manx buggy have been produced by Meyers's re-founded operation, Meyers Manx, Inc., since 2000.The name and cat logo of the brand derives from the Manx cat, by virtue of the tailless breed's and the shortened vehicle's truncated "stubbiness". The shape of the buggy had a great fortune worldwide and many manufacturers wanted to produce it, with or without an official license. The Deserter in the United States was very successful, while in Italy brands such as Puma, Giannini, Automirage and others gave their own version of the popular vehicle. The history of "alternative" buggies really deserves a separate chapter.
