Just bought my first bugeye, so hi! I seem to be going all in with English these days; also have a '67 Ford Cortina GT and '65 Sunbeam Imp.

This Sprite has some mods; 1275cc motor, crossflow radiator, alternator, fuseblock, etc. Hopefully done right.

Looks like a great forum; I'm sure I will have all kinds of questions.

Whoa! Looks great! And like someone cared about it. Welcome to the forum -- a good bunch of people on here and a lot of valuable information. If you ever have a question and want to see if it's ever been discussed, go to the Search function at the top of the page, then to Advanced Search, fill in a topic word and hit search; any time that word has been in a post it will show up. There is also a very active MG MIdget forum available, and as Midgets and Sprites are very similar, lots of info there too. Enjoy the car, and the forum.

Wonderful looking car with a very nice color combination. Best of luck with it!

Nice!! Love the color combo. You're not too far from me. Maybe I'll see you at a meetup one day. Definitely bring it to the Queen's English British Car Show next spring!

Thanks. I almost always bring something to Supercar Sunday in Woodland Hills.
Do you go to that? Hope to have it here and registered in the next two weeks.

I haven't yet, but it's on my to-do list!

Looks great ! I'm up in Topanga Canyon and I just bought a '59. It's not here yet. I owned a '60 back in the day. I'll keep an eye out for you.

I think a meet up will be in order when we all have our cars!

I kept scanning these pages for folks in my area....looks like like a few finally turned up! Garm, what do you usually bring to Supercar Sundays? I was there for part of the last three Sundays with my Sprite. I am usually chatting with Mike, the guy with the electric converted Frogeye.

I'd love to meet up with some local fellow Sprite owners.

I can also make myself available if someone needs an extra hand in the garage.

I usually drive these in rotation to SCS:

1953 Dodge M37 truck (green)
1977 Porsche 911 slant nose (red)
1967 Ford Cortina GT (blue)
2003 GO-4 meter maid three wheeler (yellow)

Obviously not brand loyal...

Think you'll make an appearance this Sunday? I'm going to try...

TW, when does yours arrive?

I'll be there, but I don't think I'll have the bugeye registered yet. Look for my red 911

Looking forward to seeing both Sprites down the line!

Garm, I should be able to make it out there. I'll look for you.
