I still need to put about 4000.00 into my 100-6, I've got a bugeye that needs total restoration, and I don't know what happened, but I just bought a 67 sprite - see ebay listing
150102447662. I really don't know what happened, I just called the guy to ask him about the 100-6 that I saw in his add on ebay for the sprite. It is a disease, isn't it. Now I've got to get it from SC to Maryland. Gotta go, it's ice and sleet outside, and I gotta get home from work (30 miles). Somebody tell me what I was thinking, and I'll answer on Monday.
 
Good deal, did the dobbie come with it? hehe

They are like potato chips.
 
Hey, good buy - did you end up paying $200 or the $1995 local price? Either way that's a good deal! Wish it were a '67 Midget.
 
Spridgets are like puppies, you just can't resist bringing another one home. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
 
i saw that sprite today on ebay ... man the thoughts i was thinking .. already restoring a 67 though .... good year ... the car on ebay looked pretty good, but there were only so many pics so it was hard to tell the true condition ... would be interested in an updaet when you receive it and check it out! pics would be priceless to a guy with his 67 in pieces. congrats and good luck!
 
Nope, the dog didn't come with it, but that's ok, we have a chihuahua at home - she'll make the car look a lot bigger!
 
Not the 200, paid 1700. One minute I was on line looking at it, the next minute my wife was saying "go ahead and buy it"! I really only called the guy to ask about the 100-6 I saw in the garage behind the sprite in his picture. Then I'm looking at the Healey budget, subtracting the money for the tonneau cover you are sending me, and before I knew it I owned the sprite and the 100-6 carpet and panels will just wait awhile longer. Now I've got to get it from South Carolina to Maryland. But it's shaping upto be a great summer! By the way, he's selling the 100-6 for 32,000 - says it'shis car, had it for quite a while.
 
Where are you in pa? We're in New Market (near Frederick), Maryland. When we get it here you can come and look at it, if you want to - take pics of whatever you need.
 
i'm about 26 miles west of philly. let me know when you have it home and i will see if i can make the trip. if the car is really in original shape or close, it would be worth it for me .. thanks!
 
Sounds like about a two hour drive - I'll let you know when it's here. It won't be for four or five weeks, we have to plan a trip down to trailer it home.
