Remembering Bruce Meyers – Creator of the Legendary Meyers Manx

Bruce Meyers passed away last week at the age of 94. He lived a fulfilling life most of us can only dream about. He was an inventor, a surfer, a war hero, an artist, and a race car driver. Meyers completely changed the landscape of the 1960s Southern California car culture when he created the Meyers Manx, an off-roading fiberglass buggy that was based on the Volkswagen Beetle.

Until the very end, Meyers was an energizing soul of car culture, celebrating life to the fullest with the freedom he experienced from off-roading.
