Beach Buggy History – How The Legend Was Born

The beach buggy as we know it today is known to be invented by Bruce Meyers. After serving his country during WW2, traveling around a bit and returning to California, he unassumingly stumbled onto something BIG. Bruce first became acquainted with "Dune Buggies" during a trip to Pismo Beach, California. This was one off road adventure that changed his life and the world’s appreciation for this unique off road vehicle.

It was at Pismo Beach, California he witnessed unusual looking V8 powered vehicles, aka: "water pumpers" that were quite basic and very heavy. These were said to be too heavy for their intended purpose, in fact. His vision for a lightweight version of the beach buggy concept for fun on the beach or in the Baja California back roads soon took shape into a huge marketplace of opportunity.

The Beach Buggy Begins To Gain Overwhelming Popularity

Bruce’s first concept took shape in modifying a Kombi bus with wide rims (he calls it the "Little Red Riding Bus") and using his expertise in boat building he designed the first fiberglass bodied beach buggy. Although mostly fun for him, an untapped industry soon took shape around one man’s idea.

The first 12 beach buggy orders Bruce produced were all-fiberglass with “monocoque” bodies with a steel structural frame inside the fiberglass shell attached to the VW suspension and running gear. Although these cars were expensive for their time, they were also unique in that so much of the VW was thrown away.

After redesigning the body to fit on a shortened VW frame ended up reducing the cost of these fun new vehicles. Not long thereafter, the Meyers Manx became one of the most sought after beach buggy styles of all time.

Beach Buggy Demand and Orders Grew Exponentially Overnight

This took the country and consumers by storm with magazines like Hot Rod and Car & Driver featuring the unique and new fiberglass car or “beach buggy” on their covers. This initially spawned a frenzy of more than 300 orders. Although not able to fill all these orders alone, soon manufacturers opened their doors practically overnight and ended up producing more than 250,000 beach buggy designs, look-a-likes and near look-a-likes to the Meyers Manx.

After several years of this new found craze, more than 300 companies globally, began to produce copies of the Manx in one form or another. Most notably, even the copiers copied each other! Bruce tried to halt the flood of knock offs violating patent infringement laws but ultimately failed to convince the judge he had produced anything worth a patent. In the years to follow B.F. Meyers & Co. built at least 5,280 Manx kits, several hundred Manx 2's, around 1,000 Meyers Tow’ds, a couple of hundred Manx SR’s and 75 Resorters - a total of nearly 7,000 kits. Not bad for an idea one man had for something more fun and efficient to enjoy beach buggy activities to the fullest.
