Title: Austin Healey Frite - 302 + C4

Here's one already done.

What a nice engine bay. None of that electrickery nonsense.

And a listing worth reading for its own sake hoho.

Not mine, but I feel somewhat tempted.  Have to ask the seller if there's space for a wicker picnic hamper.

Interesting.  Not buying the SCCA road-racing stuff as I don't think there was any category that would allow a V8 auto-tranny Bugeye to race.  Maybe it ran Solo or auto-x, though.  Doesn't seem to have a bonnet that I'm familiar with.  Good thing it's the "Frite" and not the "Fright" which is a pretty famous Bugeye with a Jag motor:  http://www.spriteparts.com.au/garage/fright.html

I love that thing... It's a bit high to me but if I had the funds lying around I'd probably pick it up
