Vehicle Description
1963 Austin Healey Sprite MK II
The owner says this car has undergone a ground up restoration using
all factory parts. This is a better than new example of a popular
British sports car.
The A-H Sprite MK II replaced the famed "bug eye" Sprite with a
bigger motor, new styling but the same great handling. Really
popular, these cars saw lots of active use and abuse so a superb
example like this car showing 70,400 miles is rare indeed.
The body was stripped down to bare metal and professionally
repainted in a striking pink color that will certainly get this car
noticed.
Under the hood everything is either new or rebuilt. Internally the
1275 cc engine was also professionally rebuilt with all new
internals including balanced and lightened pistons and crank. The
SU H52 carburetors are new as is a stainless steel exhaust system.
Many parts under the hood are powder coated.
In front are new Lucas headlamps. According to the owner the wiring
harness is also new. The suspension has been rebuilt with new
elliptical springs and shocks. The wire wheels are also new.
Also new in the interior are the top, tonneau cover (both Robbins
Everflex), side curtains, wood carpet and leather seats as well as
a Les Leston steering wheel. It even comes with a reproduction
Donald Healey Motor Co. baby seat.
Estimate: $30,000-$35,000
