I was just talking to Rick from the (Inter)National Sterling Owners Association after hearing that he’d bought Ahmad’s old widened Sterling project, and I discovered that I had an old email from him that I’d missed with some pictures of the Manx SR that he’s recently finished restoring. Better late than never! It’s got a perfect custom metalflake paintjob as well as an 1835 Gene Berg built motor and a fabbed exhaust system using old-school Harley flare tips for sidepipes.

I swear this blog exists solely for the purpose of making me jealous of almost everyone who emails me. The Manx SR is one of my favorite buggy-type cars, if not my favorite.

    I love these things the earlier Manx produced the most. The hidden hinges look the best.
