Umbane wokuzingela i-buggy

Ngeminyaka yee-1960, i-Beach Boys yayiqhuba iinqwelo-moya.I-surfing ngumdlalo omtsha opholileyo njengoko abantwana abangaphumliyo bacela umngeni kwiimbono zakudala.Ukuqala kwam oku kwakuxa ndandikwishumi elivisayo.
Enye indawo eye yatshintsha ngendlela emangalisayo yimoto.Izikhephe ezinkulu zomhlaba ze'50s ziphelile, kwaye nantsi iVolkswagen Beetle entsha, encinci.Babephefumla umoya omtsha, bekhuthaza isizukulwana esitsha sabadali ukuba bajoyine inkcubeko yentonga eshushu.Cinga imvukelo ngaphandle kwesizathu kodwa nge-tan.
Injineli, umzobi kunye nomyili wenqanawa uBruce Meyers ngomnye wabayili abanjalo.UMeyers wathatha impazamo kwaye wasebenzisa intelekelelo yakhe yasendle ukwenza eyona moto yelo xesha yelo xesha, iMeyers Manx.
Kunye neManx kwafika ikhithi yeengqumba zentlabathi.Iprototype yantlandlolo "Ebomvu Emdala" yayinomzimba we-fiberglass monocoque kunye nokunqunyanyiswa kwilori yemoto yakwaChevrolet.Lonke useto lunikwa amandla yiVolkswagen Lovesummer epholiswe ngumoya ezine-cylinder powertrain.
Xa uFerdinand Porsche wayila uQoqongqothwane wokuqala ngokwesicelo sikaHitler, engaqondanga wabeka isiseko seBuggy.Umbono wawukukudala isithuthi esithembekileyo nesifikelelekayo esinokuhamba nge-60 mph kwiindlela ezisanda kwakhiwa.I-Beetle yasekuhlaleni yayinomntakwethu wasemkhosini owaziwa ngamaNazi njengoHlobo lwe-82 Kübelwagen kwaye kuninzi lwethu njenge "Into", efana neManx.
I-Old Red ibonakalise amandla angekho endleleni yembono e-Baja Mexico, ibeka irekhodi leeyure ezingama-39 kunye nemizuzu engama-56 kuhambo lweemayile ezili-1,000 ukusuka eTijuana ukuya eLa Paz.Akukho mntu ngaphandle kwabaqhubi bezithuthuthu ababekholelwa ukuba inokwenzeka.Lo mdyarho wokubaleka uguquke waba kwinto esiyaziyo namhlanje njengeBaja 1000, olona gqatso lunzima olungekho endleleni kuMntla Melika.
Ukususela ngo-1964 ukuya ku-1971, imisebenzi ye-BF Meyers & Co yayimfutshane kwaye imnandi.Ngenxa yexabiso eliphezulu kunye nobunzima bekhithi yokuqala, kuphela malunga neshumi elinesibini leenguqulelo ezindala ezibomvu ezithengisiweyo.Ekugqibeleni, uMeyers wayeka ukunqunyanyiswa kweChevrolet, eyila iqumrhu elingena ngokugqibeleleyo kwisakhelo seVW esiqhelekileyo.
Ngoko nangoko, ezi zinto zafumaneka kubantu abanomdla kulo lonke ilizwe.Njengephenyane, amagophe agudileyo anika ukuqina okufunekayo, ngelixa ii-arched fenders zibonelela ngamatayara angekho endleleni.Ukuma kwekati kuphefumlele igama elithi Isle of Man, elisuka kwinkabi ehlangeneyo efanayo.
I-Isle of Man ifikelele kwinqanaba eliphezulu lenkcubeko ye-pop ngenoveli kaSteve McQueen kaThomas Crown.UMcQueen uthathe umlingisi weqonga uFaye Dunway kuhambo oluchulumancisayo enqumla kwiindunduma zesanti kunxweme lwaseMassachusetts.Lo mboniso wawukho kuphela kumboniso bhanyabhanya we-1968 ukubonisa indlela uThomas Crown awayelukhuni ngayo.Ngokomzekelo, ndathengiswa.
Ngowe-1970, isigqibo senkundla esasinempikiswano satshintsha yonke into.Ijaji yagweba ukuba uyilo lweManx alukho phantsi kokhuseleko lwelungelo lokushicilela.Kungekudala imarike yayizele zizigulo zomgunyathi ezinexabiso eliphantsi.Ngaphandle kweenzame zokwenza imifuziselo yamaqela aqeqeshiweyo njengeendawo ekuchithelwa kuzo iiholide kunye nabahlanguli, i-BF Meyers & Co. yayeka imisebenzi yayo.
Nangona ziimoto ezingama-6,000 kuphela ezenziweyo, zaphefumlela isizukulwana sababaleki abangekho ezindleleni.Uguqulelo lwentsimbi ye-tubular lusebenzisa i-injini yeCorvette enkulu endaweni ye-compact VW powerplant.Baye baba ludidi lwee-ATV kumdyarho weBaja onzima wale mihla.
Ngo-2000 iMeyers Manx Inc. yavuselelwa.Inkampani ikhuphe inguqulelo ephezulu elungelelanisiweyo yoyilo lwangaphambili lukaMeyers, olusekwe kwiVolkswagen Beetle.
Kwi-2023, inkampani yazisa i-Manx 2.0, inguqu yombane kunye noluhlu lweekhilomitha ezingama-300.Ifanele ngakumbi iHollywood eluhlaza kunezo zakudala ezigqumayo.Ngelixa inkampani ingekabeki ixabiso elisemthethweni, bathi imoto yombane yeyabantu abazizityebi abanezindlu ezininzi kunye neemoto ezininzi, ngoko ufumana umbono.
Kum, iMeyers Manx yoqobo yayiquka iphupha laseCalifornia.Ukudityaniswa kwentonga eshushu kunye nenkcubeko yokusefa, iManx ibonisa into enokwenzeka xa ubunjineli kunye nobugcisa bobugcisa budibana nomoya wemvukelo.
Sigxininisa kwizinto ezibaluleke ngokwenene kuthi: iindawo esiya kuzo, abantu esidibana nabo, iinkcubeko esidibana nazo, iingozi ezilindele nabani na ofuna ukungena kwinto engaziwayo, kunye nempumelelo yehlabathi yokugcina indalo ngenxa yezizukulwana ezizayo. .
