Bruce Meyers at Funfest for Air-Cooled VW

PRLog (Press Release) - Apr. 7, 2011 - Effingham, Ill. – Mid America Motorworks is excited to welcome Bruce Meyers, creator of the Meyers Manx, as a special guest at the 13th Annual Funfest for Air-Cooled VW, June 4-5, 2011. Meyers revolutionized the world of off-road racing by designing a lightweight dune buggy using fiberglass and a VW frame. From there the Meyers Manx was born and has become the most copied vehicle in history.

This will be Meyers' second time attending Funfest. In addition to leading an expert seminar, Meyers will also be available to sign autographs and visit with VW enthusiasts. This is a great opportunity to meet a dune buggy pioneer in the hobby.
