Now sold to Doug in Florida. Congratulations!
“Omaha” is a really nice mostly stock 1960 Bugeye driver that was repainted in the original Olde English White color in 2014. (We got the car in Omaha where it has lived since 2014.)
We’ve just replaced the footwell floor pans, replaced the foam and seat covers and installed new carpets and door seals so now the interior is excellent. Omaha is a handsome 948 engine, original smooth case four-speed and drum-brake equipped Bugeye that looks quite smart!
The body is quite good. Now that the floors are repaired, this car has an awesome underside. There is a non-stock cross bar in the front of the car under the nose, which can be used for new driving lights, badges or as a tie down. It is welded between the front frame rails and can be put into service, removed or left as is!
The buyer of this car is looking for a really nice car that’s a blast to drive and was recently repainted, with new floors and good stock running gear.
2286 miles show on the clock, which is likely the mileage that has been put on the car since the restoration project in 2014. The car is a strong runner!
Upgrade opportunities that we can do before departure would be to remove and recover the dashboard and weld shut the old radio hole in the dash. It is nicely covered now with a Sprite plaque and works just fine. But we can make it nicer for the new owner if so desires. An AM radio is also a possible place holder in the dash, if you prefer that look.
The nice wood aftermarket steering wheel completes the package and makes the car look even better. Top and side curtains are older but functional.
Call or email if you would like to take Omaha home!
