I went & visited Gary in Issaquah and returned with a lot of good stuff!
Here's what I got:
(all in good -to- very good condition)
Bonnet
Boot lid
NICE chrome luggage rack
pair of side mirrors
pair of sun visors
various chrome bits (MIDGET) etc...
Perfect windshield IN THE FRAME
NOS turn signal lights
various other bits & pieces
He removed it all for me & helped pack.
Said I could have whatever else I wanted.
For this I paid the man $200.
He was given a Bugeye, so he bought this as a parts car.
The 948 that came with the Bugeye was no good, so he is going to install a motorcycle engine. He hopes to get 80 MPG.
He's not going to hack anything up, so the standard motor can be installed any time.
This guy has such a great shop, he has some really cool projects. He builds cars, and seems to want to do things that just defy -
Like, a 50's pickup truck with a big V8 Caddy engine mounted in the bed. Seriously. I was there, I saw it - a mid engine pickup.
Anyway - he will give the rest of the Midget to anyone who will come & take the whole thing. Load it on your trailer & go.
There are a lot of good parts in this thing ( all removed & put in the trunk or in boxes) and the sheet metal is all good.
