Jack, maybe next year they'll send you the flier only with last year's dates on it.
"Oops, sorry you missed it this year..." LoL

Well, done Jack. She is a beaut. So much room inside her compared to a Midget.

Jack, you & Miss A. are an inspiration.
I'm working on getting my little red Sprite together before August 2nd, so I can park it in the local show. It's just a little (and imperfect) MK2 Sprite, but I want to see what all the fun is about. :wink:

Getting called up as "First Place Midgets and Bugeyes, Jack Laird and Miss Agatha, 1959 Austin Healey Sprite" is a real kick. But the folks I have meet, at show after show are the real kick.
When the big Healeys blow their horns when they go by sends a chill. You know you have been accepeted as one of the folks.
All in all Rick, it is worth the hard work and effort just because of the folks that show their appreciation, not to mention Miss Agatha as well.
She just adores the admeration after her reseraction 4 years ago and giving up hope of being on the road and smileing again.

Definitely sounds like fun Jack, I don't have any aspirations to that level but just joining in and having a few people enjoy my car would be nice.
Today I'm going to see if I can get the brakes and clutch bled and then maybe start working on the bonnet from the MK1 Midget to replace that thing that's on her now. I suppose that after I have brakes and clutch I could put some gas in her and see if she goes... I guess I have to drive her for the first time someday.
Oh - have to bolt down those seats too.
I think August is a good target for having her put together. It would be nice to have her done for the ABFM at the end of July.
As I said Jack - you & Miss Agatha are an inspiration.
