Ok..Here we go..I bought my first Bugeye with my own money when I was a Junior in HS. My Father and Brothers taught me how to take it apart, put it back together and care for it. I loved it! Life's pressures then took over and I gave up the little guy. But Now it's 30 Years later and I have come full circle to my second 1959 Bugeye Sprite. it's awesome, wire wheels and all! I have not forgotten the lessons learned with my Father and Brothers, and it is now in my heated garage where the motor and transmission are removed. I am changing the smooth case 948 transmission for a nice rebuilt rib case transmission. I am also upgrading and re-doing many other little things along the way so that all will be well when Spring comes. P.S. This one is STAYING!
