This week I would like to bring back to the forefront two great winter project candidates. Each of these Bugeyes are great starting points! One of these cars is a running, driving car with a 1275 engine that is in need of floor pan repairs, and the other is a completely blank slate which can be transformed into the Sprite of your dreams! Take a look at each car below and give us a call if you are interested!
This Frogeye called “Fuller” (AN5 47899) is a 1960 running and driving project Bugeye. This is a good looking car that was a stalled restoration when we got it, and we got it running so we could find it a new home. The foundation has been laid and Fuller now runs and drives with a new master cylinder and good brakes. The 1275 engine runs strong! Paint is quite good! Read more here!
This is a Bugeye we call “Fritz” (AN5L 32663). Fritz is a rolling project that came to us from Iowa. A restoration was started long ago but didn’t really get off the ground and has sat for some time, waiting for a new lease on life. If you’re looking for a “blank slate” starting point for a Bugeye build, this is the car for you! This past week, we cleaned out the car and made a brand-new walkaround video so you can better understand this project. It has a lot of potential! Read more here!
