        Hello Spridgets Group,

                        I am at a loss at this time. My 1959 bugeye was sitting 
for 7 years in storage. I got it running
        in two days and thought everything was fine. Did put in electronic 
ignition on the third day and
        felt that it was doing very well. Gave it to my son in Florida and then 
problems began. Mostly it quits
        on the road at various times of running and doesn't want to start again 
without a lot of well chosen 
        words. He doesn't want to run it on the road anymore. So here is the 
question. Have anyone used the
        electronic ignition? Have any problems with it, or should I go back to 
points and condenser?

                        Another thing is that at times, other electronic items 
stop working. Could it be a bad ignition/
        lighting switch? If this is the whole problem, does someone have a 
spare ignition/lighting switch to
        sell? He sure likes that vehicle, is in Florida, and I am in Wisconsin. 
Would like to help him out for
        Christmas and end his frustration. Have looked at Victoria British and 
others, but no one has the 
        above mentioned items. So your help would be greatly appreciated. 
Willing to try anything. 

                        I want to thank you for your time if you respond.    
Gary
