Bugeye rear ends 100-6 [the result video]

Trevor,

Time for a new Steel Bonnet from England. That Sprite is too nice not to have a new bonnet shipped from England.
 
I know he is looking for a good bonnet, and I'm sure he'll make it look nice again. I've never seen the reproduction steel bonnets to know whether they are good or bad. Do you know someone that has purchased one here in the states?

Yeah, how did the Sprite get to be "Father" and the BN6 "Son"? :jester:
 
The kid grew up with the bugeye and watching his father never finish a BN2 project. So when the kid moved out on his own he went and purchased a "restored" BN6.

I thought it was very tasteful and produced well. They throw you a curve at the end, but there is allot more to this than meets the eye. Then again, I'm always a bit too deep.

Great to see that have that strong of a relationship. It wouldn't have gone well at all over here.
 
What I am saying is the Dad kills his Bugeye and hardly damages the Big Healey.

So Dad screws up
Tears up his car
And now it is on Utube

Thats wrong
 
Honestly the son is actually pretty gutted that the car from his childhood is smashed up. The video is all in fun.

I loved it.
 
Thanks for the bonnet links. He is looking for one that is pretty solid. He found a pretty good one local, but he has to buy the whole car to get it. My suggestion was to buy the whole car (use the bonnet) and then sell it later to someone that could care less if it they had to use a fiberglass bonnet.

Someone like me who would put a fiberglass Sebring bonnett on it. :devilgrin:
