Anyone noticed an increase in Spridgets for sale vs. MGBs or MGAs? Maybe it's a regional thing, but I see a lot more advertised on Craigslist here in the Southeast than I do the other cars, or even other British makes.

Around here, B's are the most common, Spridgets are next and A's next by a long shot. Interestingly I always see Spridgets for sale, 15-20 on Kijiji right now but I never see them driving leading me to suspect that there are lots of abandoned projects out there.
 
That's not too bad of a MGB in the link. Elrey-Until the new Hobbit movie comes out I guess we'll just have to stick to referencing cars. `8)
 
Elrey you bad. Sigh.
 
Lots of projects though, just start looking for Datsun stuff. Many wanted ads for 210 Datsuns and 210 transmission's. I'm afraid that with the high scrap prices this stuff is going to the crusher. Have'nt seen any 210 5 speeds on ebay for quite a while.

Like I said, I'm married. Besides, sounds like a better deal on CL. :laugh:

I bet she's the girlfriend of the owner. Notice the reluctant look.

I thought it was when you got married they became reluctant? No, guess things have changed. LOL
 
We use to have a female or two. Shame they went away after restoring their cars.

In fact many folks seem to depart after solving problems or rebuilding. Tis a shame but guess that is thw way life is.

Think I will stick around, I kind of like it here.
 
There is always something to fix or think about fixing with these little cars, Plus you never know how much you put together wrong the first time without hanging out here.

Hey! I am sure I'm not the only female lurking out here, just haven't posted for a while. I went to look at the link, but someone must have drooled one too many times and it got flagged.

Hey Jack, Judy is still here.

She gets my vote for Miss BCF 2011!
 
Thanks, that is my first Sprite, may she rest in peace.....My new one is red but I haven't had a chance to change the Avatar. Miss seeing all of you N.O.S.H.I.T guys out there.
