    The BUGEYE has arrived!!!

    Hello all,

    We brought our 1969 BUGEYE home tonight and I drove it about 10 miles, what fun the drive was. 24435501F now has a happy home and owner. I can tell rovers will be extremely addictive. I collect and restore pinball machines of all ages and what started with one morphed into 20 pinball machines. I don't have room for 20 rovers but I can see how one will probably not be enough : >

    Now the fun begins........

                  Working on the pics.

                  I'll try to get pics this weekend if the weather cooperates. Trying to get some stuff cleaned up and check the heater that won't come on.

                  Thanks guys

                      Pics are up.

                      You can download any of them for a larger original camera size image.

                      Looks like leaks in the front Diff and transfer box from what I can see. Also the yellow 4 wheel drive selector is floppy and needs to be held up. Not sure what that is about.

                      Now I need to get it to Trevor in PA to go over it. Let the fun begin!
