[Spridgets] Where were you when the LBC bug got you?

[Bug Eye]

I was 9 years old selling news papers in the Army barracks and there were 2
Bugeyes I would see around the base. I bought my Bugeye in 1979 and then
couldnbt afford to get it back on the road so it got pushed into the corner
of the garage and forgotten. I discovered it under a pile of stuff in 2010 and
decided it was time to do something with it. This was the first summer Ibve
been able to drive it.
B I spent most of my money on body and suspension and
had to use a motor and transmission that came out of a parts car I bought for
brakes. They got me through this summer and should be replaced this winter. If
I wasnbt a good double clutcher I would have never made it through the
summer.

List I was just discussing with Kirk about when the
LBC bug got you hooked,
his was in a VW camper driving past LBC's at San Diego
State College and
seeing them on campus in the 1960's I don't recall mine
perhaps as my older
brother called out the American cars while in the back
seat of the family
car and I saw a MGTD or an MGA and he may have said that is
a British car. I
was hooked ever since.

So what did you see how old were you
and what year was it when you got
hooked?

This should be fun to see the
replies : )
