Rare opportunity to own a legendary piece of automotive history. This car this was the result of an entire family’s project that took well over 2 years. They started with the idea of making a Museum quality Bugeye. They replaced, restored or changed every nut and bolt from top to bottom. The car was finished about 2007 and had only been driven about 250 miles when I purchased it in 2022. I immediately had the car reviewed from top to bottom and renewed/improved a huge list of items typical of a car that is not regularly driven (Glad to provide detailed list) Powered by a 948cc inline-four cylinder with a Holley carburetor, a Judson sliding-valve supercharger, Marvel Mystery inverse oiler, and an Abarth exhaust system with dual tailpipes mated to a “ribcase” four-speed manual transmission. Includes a white removable hard top. The car has been featured in Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car magazine and won numerous awards including 1st place in the coveted Austin Healey Conclave in San Diego, California.

The perfect addition to any collection or garage and she gets more attention than even my exotics! Enclosed transport available at very reasonable rates.
Update: After all items updated in 2022, the Sprite has run beautifully the last 2+ years. I recently experienced some rough idling issues related to the Holly carburetor and am considering options for either Holly rebuild, replacing with original H1 SU, or updating to a new HS2 SU carb/manifold. Open to potential buyer's input as it will affect the final sale price of the car.
