Hello, my name is Tom. I live in Southern California and I’ve had the pleasure of owning 3 Austin-Healey Bugeye Sprites and one Mk 4 Sprite. The first 1960 Bugeye I purchased was after my tour of duty in the USMC back in 1966. It really got me hooked on Sprites, so much so that a bought a brand new Mk IV in1967. My next one in 1996 was another 1960 Bugeye I had partially restored but lost in a divorce. That brings us to this year when I purchased another 1960 Bugeye. As anyone can see…I’m hooked. To me it’s like buying a new car again. Since I’m not a mechanic, I will be seeking assistance from other members on various issues. I’m looking forward to interacting with each of you. Best to all!
