Hi everyone
Just got my bugeye AN5L 37209

Drove it home from Richmond VA last Saturday on I-95 to York PA, cold, windy and noisy but enjoyed every minute of it.

Bright Red with a 1275 MG engine. Ribbed 4 speed gearbox

Heater has been bypassed. I'm going to keep it that way as retiring in the next couple of months and moving to Flagler beach FL

Back in my younger days spent many an hour under the bonnet of an A35, Ford 100E Prefect (4 door no less) Morris 1000 and the boot of a Hillman IMP (gosh, could that engine rev) and lastly a Ford Cortina Mk 1 Then it was onto Cars with no souls.

Looking forward to meeting members with great taste :smile:

Bill - welcome to BCF, and congrats on your new toy and upcoming retirement!

You are of hardy stock - to drive from Richmond VA to York PA without a heater -

Hope you enjoy Florida! (But you'll have some crazy guy who wears socks with his flip flops as a neighbor) :smile:
