NOW SOLD TO SEAN of San Diego, CONGRATULATIONS!
We’ve been holding Palmer for a client who wanted to purchase the car a month or so back, but a back injury will keep him sidelined for a while longer, so we are making the car available once again. This is an excellent choice for anyone who doesn’t want to hassle with a project, no matter what the prior owner reports. We have gone through this car and it works! Recently added– new seat base metal trays and seat foams. Seats are nice and plush!
This is a really nice and well-sorted Frogeye. The car is very clean, with a strong 948 engine and upgraded front disk brakes. Anyone looking for a solid Bugeye with stock specs will appreciate this handsome example. Thousands have been spent this year to sort and refresh any weak areas, and to make this car ready for summer driving fun.
We first met “Palmer,” a 1960 Bugeye AN5L 27237, in December of 2016, when we were called upon to fully sort out this new acquisition for a Florida-based owner. He spent thousands in our shop to make the car right. We went through every system, and corrected any run-quality, braking, fuel system and cosmetic issues. We also fit a new red top and tonneau. When he offered to sell the car this Spring, I jumped on the opportunity to have a car we knew was filtered through our shop. Someone is going to get a great fully-fettled Bugeye.
The car drives quite nicely. The engine shows great oil pressure and sounds great. The interior is excellent. It’s fun! Click “more” below to see the photo album!
Feel free to call if you would like to take Palmer home!
