The Ghost of Lucas still haunt me to this very day and my Triumph TR6 has been gone for over 20 years. ;)

I had a '80 MGB in 1984. It was a whole lot of fun right up to the day I turned the wheel left and absolutely nothing happened. Well, alot happened between the time I turned the wheel and when I came to a stop in a dinning room.

My dad still has his 59' Bugeye Sprite that he bought in about 61'. It hasn't been driven since 78' or 79' :( At least it's garaged in New Mexico. I love that car. Even has has a hardtop.

Mine was a '61. I drove it stock about a year and then swapped in a Triumph TR-4A engine/transmission and a TR-2 rear end. Pretty much ruined it as a useful car but it would just humilliate '66 Ford 390 GT-A's at the dragstrip. The engine swap solved the coil problem too. Wish now I had another one to do differently.

"Fires right up" is a veiled warning.
