Description

Austin Healey Sprite of 1969 in good general condition.

The engine has been checked, it starts at first attempt without problems. Carburetion and ignition tuned up, haven't driven long distances in years, just short rides, but gears seem to engage smoothly. Very good brakes.

It has American documents and is ready to register in Europe, with fees paid. It has never been restored but it does not show rust, it comes from a dry climate. Freshly painted, not perfect but good job.

New tyres. Convertible hood in good condition. Both windows in good condition. New carpet. New gear stick knob. Seats in original unrestored condition, in good general condition without breaks although not perfect. Dashboard in very good condition. Clocks apparently all functional. Original radio. New seat belts.

Very fun car with rear wheel drive. Recently changed petrol tank. The doors close very well.

Minor damages:

1. The knob is a little loose, it needs to be fixed better.
2. Some body rubbers are old, for example front windows
3. Exhaust line remade in an unprofessional way, it would be advisable to change it.
4. There is a slight scratch on the passenger window, caused by raising and lowering the hood without opening the door.
5. Worn door panels in the lower part.
