Now why would someone put an 850cc engine in a Bugeye? Isn't that the
A-series engine from a Morris Minor? Doesn't it limit the Bugeye to a top
spee of about 60 mph?

1961 Austin Healy Bugeye Sprite - LOS ANGELES area ......... very solid
car , no rust , stored inside last 22 years ............. 850cc motor in a
box , but a later 1100-1275cc motor will fit........... has good windshield
and aftermarket sliding side windows........ has a rollbar ( must have been
raced sometime).......... needs paint and the light dings fixed
correctly............ If the high bidder does not reach the reserve I will
contact them and try to work out a deal, I am mostly interested in VWs and
this car was parts of a group of cars I bought, I have no intentions to fix
it, its just taking up space...... ....if it does not reach the reserve I
might be interested in trading it for a 1950-67 VW bus.... its a
project............TRANSPORT......I will take it to your shipping agent in
Los Angeles area........PAYMENT...............Pounds, US$ , most European
currencies. Please ask questions before bidding and understand that the car
is located in California and that you are bidding in UK Pounds not US$,
