The detailed restoration of a Manco Dingo.

Postby Red-85-Z51 » Thu Aug 30, 2007 9:27 am

This is a restoration and buildup of a Manco Dingo, performed by user "mullet".

Notice how he mounted the torque-a-Verter, notice how he made a new pedal stop, very clear pics and lots of em! Hope this helps some of you doing the same or similar task.

Why yes, this is VERY useful information.
I was surprised that powder coating was only $100. Well worth that price, I would think.
Thank you.

Nicely done. I think you have helped me identify my little project! Here is a true Basket case someone gave me. I believe it was, at one point, a Dingo as well. At this point I have already added everything you see above the bottom seat cushion. The last owner was attempting to add about 10 inches to the frame but only made it so weak the belly would hit the ground if you bounced it up and down. I'm 6'2" and my 11 year old is already 5'3" so I liked the wheelbase. It's a lot {flaxulation} along now and I will update the pictures but I just wanted to get something up so you guys can see how I can give "over engineering" new meaning!
