towguy76 ◊ 2007-07-30 00:36	Is it possibly a Meyers Manxxter?
Indygo ◊ 2008-01-02 22:08	No way that can't be a Meyers Manx. It has to be a Meyers -- Last edit: 2008-01-02 22:08:50
antp ◊ 2008-08-28 11:25	Is there a Meyers make other than Meyers Manx?

It's definitely VW based, but it has no engine. The transaxle is visible, however. It's either a Meyers Manx or one of the similar, knock-off brands. They had several imitators.
