Spridget Therapy

Thank you. You can tell she really loves riding in this car. I'm not sure how many more nice days we're going to get, but I plan on taking advantage of every one.
 
Little girls are just special.
 
I took the Sprite out with my daughter for a little drive yesterday...with the top up. While it wasn't quite the same as riding around with the top down, there was still enough sensory stimuli for her to really enjoy the ride. The car, surprisingly, was quite comfortable to ride in despite temps hovering around the freezing mark. Sometimes, I'm amazed at how "civilized" such a bare bones car can be.
 
Spridget heater's will cook you out if the engine will come up to temp....unlike MGB heaters that I always thought were barely enough.

A quick clip of Jessica riding in the Sprite this weekend:

 
Wow, what a wonderful heartwarming story.
With results like that I think it's worth the effort to leant a stick and get another one.
 
I keep trying to convince the Mrs. that she can learn stick, and that the Spridget is an easy car to learn stick with (save the non-synchro first gear, but a later Midget would solve that problem). No dice, yet.
 
Maybe a late model MGB Roadster? Very nice car, Easy to shift a pleasure to drive with all the excitement of a LBC with a bit more room and comfort.
 
Shows again what mood elevators LBC's are! Your daughter seems to have a great beat going and so enjoying the ride. Thank you for sharing this very inspiring story!
