Thanks for accepting me . I have a 1960 Austin Healey frogeye ( bugeye) sprite that I’ve had for 36 years and keep as original as possible . I also have a 1962 Jaguar mk2, 2.4 litre that has some discreet modifications, this car I’ve had for 32 years. I do practically all my own maintenance to keep them looking good. Best wishes, Colin

Welcome aboard. I found a Bugeye Grille and bumper once. Had moved into a duplex and they were hanging in the rafters. I have 2 MK 1s in restoration mode. Have a bunch of MK2 driver condition parts I picked up over the years.

Thanks Basil, I am getting ready to re spray some of the sprites inner wings just to tidy things up. Unfortunately, my wife has just broken her wrist and I have had to become a nurse so it may have to wait.

HI Basil, thanks for your reply last sept. (doesn’t time fly) I can only report an awful autumn and winter with both of us out of action. I’m hoping for some warmer weather so that I can get some work done on my cars. Keep well, Colin

Love this cars! By the way, you added your pictures as an attachment rather than inserting as images. I have corrected that so the pictures show up in the body of your post. I'm a Jag guy myself and that Mark II makes my eyes water! Welcome to BCF
