My dad had a bugeye before I was born. He told me several stories about it. Apparently the head was milled to bump compression a bit. He was a gearhead. He also had a big Healey, I think a '67, I think when my parents lived in Hawaii. He had 2 or 3 corvairs too. When I was tiny, maybe 2-3 yo, he had an MG Midget. He was 6'2" and 200#. For the most part, all of the interesting cars stopped when I was about 4. After that it was based on cost and practicality. He did get a corvette when I was 15. That was his thing after all of those years of boring and slow.
