First picture of the family mini-fleet

When I sold the Tunebug a couple years ago I swore that I wouldn't have multiple cars again. As y'all know, that didn't last all that long. Last night I was moving the cars around to put the new Bugeye in the shop and the MGB in the main garage, and snapped this quick shot.

Feels like no time has passed since I had a similar little mini-fleet.

Thanks, guys. It really does feel good to have a Bugeye again. Makes no sense, but there it is

Yeah, I get nostalgic for my bugeye occasionally too. Might happen. Stranger things have.

I was actively *not* looking for another one, but here I am two weeks after getting the tip, with a Bugeye in the shop. Funny how it happens.
 
Drew, very nice cars - like book ends!
Photo Tip:
Check to see if the camera you are using has a White Balance setting, looks like it's set for indoor lighting either incandescent or florescent or the "auto" setting isn't working right.
Try choosing auto if it isn't set that way or "outdoor" or "daylight" - some cameras call it different names.
 
Congrats from another white car family! :highly_amused:

Thanks, Nial. I'll admit that I thought of you when I realized that I had a full fleet again of white w/ black cars.

Good tip -- though the camera used in this case was an iPhone 4 outside when it was nearly dark so this was the best I could do. :smile:

That is exactly (and I do mean exactly) how I found my wife.

...and here I am...eleven years later....

Strangely enough, it's true for my wife and I, eleven years here as well.
 
Funny how that works...45 years old and CONFIRMED and happy. 19 years later no longer confirmed, but much happier.
