This is a good opportunity to acquire a Vintage race Bugeye with logbook, which will make a great Winter Project.
Now at age 76, after many years of restoring and driving old race cars, we have sold two of our shop buildings, andI am being encouraged by my family to retire and sell most of my cars, and huge stock of Vintage parts.

This Historic Bugeye is for sale at the shop and elsewhere.
We will consider all reasonable offers to end early

Currently in the shop for restoration. This is a pretty solid Arizonacar,stripped to bare metal, underside is done and in finish paint. Has Panhard bar and adjustable anti roll in rear. We welded in jack points. stiffeners, and reinforced spring boxes ( which were solid ) same as I did back in '59 to my (then new) Bugeye. Wheels / tires in pictures are to roll around shop.. Comes with alloy kidney bean wheels. Tilt nose. Front disc brakes. Ribcase trans. and more.
