My name is Steve Tyo. My family and I live in San Antonio. I just heard about the club, and am intersted in attending some of the shows, ETC. I have a manx that I have been working on for a while, and would love to get to know a few other people in the Texas area. I was looking in the club members pics, and you guys have some sweet rides! So far I get alot of strange looks here in SA when I am driving down the street, is that normal for the Manx?

Look forward to meeting everyone, Steve0we

Welcome to the group, Steve.
There should be several of us at the VW Classic in Fredricksburg April 21 & 22, and then of course, the Buggy Blast in Salado in May needs to be a "must do" for you.
There is a really nice buggy being built in your area by "Staggerwing" who is in Seguin.
I'm in Rosenberg, but come to the Hill Country a good bit for crusin' my buggy.
I think the strange looks you are getting are really admiration and appreciation. Everywhere I go in my Buggy I get "thumbs up" and smiles because I think young and old alike have never lost their love affair with dune buggies.

Welcome to the site, there are alot of great people here, anything you need just put it out there and theese guys will help..Bill k gave you the heads up on the shows maybe we will see you at one. dont worry about the strange looks i think people are interested in the things you dont see on a daily basis.

Welcome Steve, Ive seen a few pics of your buggy on the VOSA site and all I can say is WOW that thing is nice!

I have a few questions for you, Where did you get the body and how much was the shipping? Also who built the A arm suspension?

Please post up some pics here, Im sure others will want to see your Totally Awesome buggy.

Glad to see ya found us. Yes and some of the race car project! Oh and fellas, Steve does some awesome work and is building some really clean and radical projects! Not sure which I like better the Bug or Buggy! Both are artwork! Oh and if anyone needs some cool sign work or other cool banners, well Steve just happens to be the sign man!!![/b]

When I get a chance, I will post up a few of the other projects we have going on.

The body was from MGM plastics out of southern California. Not sure on the shipping, I actually picked it up from MGM with a trailer.
As far as the Aarm setup, I have done a few in house, but this one was designed by a friend out of california. We have a couple of ne projects with Aarm setups at my shop now. I will post a few pics of that stuff when I get a chance as well.

If I can help out in any way, let me know......
