Monica H's 1960 Austin-Healey Bugeye Sprite
|
Bugeye Sprite inherited from S.O.'s father. Many details of the car are not yet known (going to have to take things apart and poke at it). The car is running, the engine idles well and feels strong, maybe runs a bit rich. Transmission feels a bit rough to shift, but considering the type of vehicle and it's age, fine/as expected. Brakes are stiff and vague, but they work. Car had been in a crash in the 80s and was repaired. Paint has many chips and is showing its age, but is not terrible. Wonderfully fun.
My S.O. is also on this forum, thus the odd VIN. The "body code" above is the body/chassis code on the inside of the fender.
