<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:]Bibber, here is the link to the Sprite (only one I have seen!):

Mike....thanks...I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to ebay and now I've got help...Knew I should've bought it last time at $100...bidding on it is already past what the market value is for the real thing....my wife wishes I'd stick to the minatures but there just not nearly as much fun to drive!!!! [/QUOTE]

My wife is the exact opposite, the cost of every "little one " I buy she "tactfully" points out could have gone to something the real car could use!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif
 
NO HABLA ENGLISH AMERICANO!!!

O lordy, the trucker picking up my Morris in Texas just called!!!! I knew when the seller threw in free shipping it was too good to be true...I'll say my prayers tonight for safe arrival...

maybe is like on the realuns when they say "normal road chips"?...I've never known a road chip that was normal.

anyway: Me llamo es "Herbie" is scheduled to be here in the a.m....pretty bad when I name em huh??? but Malitlda, Helga, Sylvia, Mitsie and Lady Cassandra can't wait...!
 
HERBIE...arrived safe and sound...actually came in on just a 3 car carrier by an independent...he actually let me unload it then I reloaded a nice 500 MUSTANG for him back on trailer...HERBIE runs very strong and drives pretty good...but is going to need more cosmetic surgery than I had hoped...also showed up with the original NEW ZEALAND title...this should be interesting in the Fremont County Treasurer...they run when they see me coming...."THE ADVENTURE BEGINS"...
 
Well, photos are now in order!!
 
will do....they will be the "as is" photos...THE WIFE LIKED IT...THOUGHT HE WAS CUTE (so I guess I won't have to live in it)...Doc..Thanks for the relocate offer...showed her the woodie idea (traveller) and it's a go but I'll have to make all my own wood since dimensions are way different from the trav....looks like Sylivia my TR is gonna get second fiddle again this winter...

BTW...Tony any action on the UK YB?

Seller hasn't answered my questions!
 
OK...the fun thing is when I do it this way haven't spent any money yet...Here's my idea on Herbie...restore to a Traveller/Van for GUINESS BEER delivery...woodwork plus the a GUINNESS BEER AD I put together BRILLIANT and logo's....

OK I know GUINNESS is made in Dublin...but the BRIT's love their STOUT suds..am I on track....?

Thanks...at least 3 of us will like it...and good point...they couldn't drink their beer if it didn't get delivered...BRILLIANT!
 
Id make it a boddington's truck. Paint it like a bee.
 
Make it four... I thought I'd be a "given" with this lot. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
