Vehicle Detail
This is a 1960 Bugeye that we purchased 5 years ago for a project and for personal use. At that time it had a repainted body and welded in panels above and below the floor pan. I added a new wiring harness, carpeting and purchased many used and new parts to make it roadworthy. We have used it regularly for short local excursions, and it attracts much attention. It has a 1275 engine with an electric fuel pump and has no apparent oil pressure problems. Mechanically the car is listed as-is. Within the past two years a new battery, master cylinder, and clutch slave cylinder was installed. The speedometer was in KPH which we replaced. . The car includes a tonneau cover, soft top and frame, side windows with new lexan, original jack, and we also include the original repaired seat frames and old foam that can be recovered. The tires are in almost new condition, and included are 4 older Dunlops in like condition. The paint is two stage clear coat (1999 Jaguar green is a match) with small areas of rust bubbles in the door pillars (normal for this car)
