I got lucky and am going to pick up a 74 Midget if weather holds out this week. Was running well when previous owner flipped it. Been sitting for 22 years. Body is straight, but needs a fender, windshield, and door glass. Fortunately the donor 70 Midget for Bugeye has all needed parts. Since the BJ8 is complete and being driven, I wasnt planning to resurect anything but Bugeye, but may reconsider now, since cost wont be too much to complain about.

The do seem to multiply like those old wire coat hangers, now don't they. Maybe they get lonely and send out some sort of call that we can't hear.

I think it's the scent given off by leaking 20/50 or the whine of first gear.
I never thought it possible that LBCs could 'find' other LBCs, but they do.
