Now THIS would be a neat runabout. A Meyers Manx electric dune buggy...

1. Unfortunately, not street legal. There was an episode of "CHiPs" in which

some kids were running around the streets of LA in one, and Ponch and John had to chase them down.

Give me a bit, and I'll find that.

I'm sure that you could build a street legal version, but it would probably lack some of the fun.

Thanks for the thread.

Oh, it was a two-parter.

A motorbike & buggy chase from episode "Drive Lady Drive - Part 1".

{edited to add:}

I was thinking of an episode from the first season. The vehicle in that episode is some dune buggy, but not necessarily a Meyers Manx.

According to a commenter, it was made in 1969 by dune Buggy Enterprises.

The dune buggy in the season 3 episodes is a custom-made Sandrail.
