The Frogeye goes to shows in Edmonton and Calgary! Bugeye Build Episode 152
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Very British weather for showing a very British car! We travel to Edmonton AB for the All British Motor Meet and then back to Calgary for the Wings & Wheels weekend at the @thehangarflightmuseum8272 .
The Sprite did very well for its first big trip... 400 miles total with no mechanical issues and great fuel economy! Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate for shooting any video.

Thank you!!
Hi, have watched your project come to life. Well done. I have one here in England for last 9 years. I put wing mirrors on supplied by A H Spares. I see yours are rectangular; mine are round. I had to adjust out so that the door does not hiot them, but still found I cannot see them easily, especially the nearside (in England) because the side sheild frame gets in the way. I bought longer stems, made for motorcycles, and fitted those in place. Yes they work, but do stick out somewhat. Can yopu see easily through your rectangfular ones even with sidescreens in place? Where did you get your rectangular ones from ? I have anothe Frog /Bug in my garage now. Have worked on it for last 4 years; sills, A poists, etc, etc. Nearly ready for dipping and then for spraying (HEY!) and then the rebuild. Thanks for the tips Chris

Thanks Chris. I purchased my mirrors from @Bugeyeguys ( tinyurl.com/ampzjew4 ). They do interfere with the side curtains a bit but I hardly use them so it's not a big issue for me.
Jesus GUS IS HUGE!!! Did you use your soft top or hard top to stay dry?
