Draggon Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Prolly 69-70 bug done in a Baja racer style with Empi exhaust with SuperTrapp baffles 1973 or later due to the vent hole behind the quarter windows and the gas flap door opening from the outside and not with the remote cable in the glove box. Its hard to put it further b/c theres not much left to it other than the body that cant be swapped real easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dub Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Looked like a Bugeye Sprite. Not too much to see though.... Although, with the name of the video being "Best Car There", and you being the son of an owner of a Bugeye Sprite, then I suppose my guess was spot on?

Eeyore Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Go the Austin Sprite! Although most of us are aware of these car's pedigree in circuit, rally and sprint racing across the world for the last 40+ years there was one prominent Sprite that used to race in various drag classes with a 2.0L Nissan FJ20 turbo engine down here. It really was well before its time here in Australia. The car pretty much pre-dated most if not all of the 'high-tech' turbo cars of say the last 10 - 12 years.

dub Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 (edited) heeey you got a good eye! You didn't say the Hella's and the light conversion buuut..... Nice Sherlock! Since you mentioned the Hellas, I want to tell you I would NEVER hang a set of those Hellas under the bumper on any lowered car. Those particular lights are the Black Magic set and IIRC, cost $300-400!!! Only on top of the bumper! They would get damaged soooo easily that low. Oh, it's actually a Mk2 Golf, Mike. I've got two of 'em, and I love 'em! edit: Nick, do you actually find labeled pics or are you guessing again?

Yeah, very cool ones, but they don't have roundy headlights That is what the pic said, MKI Golf but I figured it was a II but the shape.. see I'm learnin!
