Hi all. My name is Dave and I'm in the middle of building a 1959 Austin Bugeye project car. It's not an ordinary restore as I'm installing a 13B Mazda rotary engine in place of the 948CC original install. I joined this forum to get some help bringing this project to completion. I'm currently in need of some brake and suspension info and will use the search as much as possible.

A 13B? That is just too cool.
And, I suppose you're going to say it is turbo.
Pics man, Lots and lots of pics.

Welcome to the best forum for British cars ever. (Thanks Basil)
