I've been working on British cars since apprenticing with a British car specialist in Killen Alabama, in 1975. I later ran imports unlimited in Sheffield Alabama until I retired to Florida in 2004. I took up teaching automotive technology when I moved. I've had minis, sprites, an MG B GT and worked on Bentleys, Daimlers, Rolls, Triumphs and the whole plethora of British Leyland vehicles. I was always a mechanic, at 6 I let the air out of a tire on our family car so i could help change it. I got caught and had to pump the tire up with a bicycle pump. I never did that again.
I'm seeking advice specifically on installing a rear window in the hardtop of my 59 frogeye if anyone wants to reach out. Hey I'm a mechanic not a window glazer.
Peace be with all y'all

I envy your British car experience Stretch. I think we have members with background in every marque you mentioned.

There have been other questions on Frogeye rear windows, so take a look at the BCF Spridget forum area, and post your question there:

I forget to mention ownership of 4 Morris Minors. 2 LCV Van's a Traveller and currently a 55 tourer which is for sale, quite reasonably priced if I must say so.
