Here we have my Austin Healey Sprite Mk II 1/2. It is the 1098cc model with the front disc brakes and solid wheels. Though I have owned the car for a number of years. I only got it all back together this month and unfortunately need to sell it straight away.

It passed the MOT last week and is now taxed and tested for a year (free road tax of course).

The body was stripped right down for painting and has been finished in two pack paint in the original Iris Blue with the correct type seats in blue with pale blue piping.

The speedo says that the car has covered 30. 94 miles at the moment. It is the speedo that came with the car but obviously I cannot guarantee the mileage.

I have upgraded a few bits. It has had the head modified with hardened valve seats to run on unleaded fuel. and it has Halogen head lamps. electric washer pump. electric fuel pump and sports steering wheel.

Loads of new bits including:
Crankshaft and bearings
Cam bearings
Valve seats etc.
Timing chain
Head gasket etc.
Water pump
Carbs balanced and timing set
Exhaust
All oils and filters
Bump stops and rebound straps
Loads of rubbers and gaskets
Paint
Carpets
Seat covers and interior panels
Brake hoses
Brake pipes
Wheel cylinders
Ignition switch
Fuse box
Carb float jets and needles
Bonnet badge
Voltage control regulator etc etc.

There are a few bits that could be improved - the hubcaps and bumpers for instance. The temp gauge does not work and the key will not turn in the boot lock. It is however very tidy for a fifty year old car!!

Please feel free to come and view the car - it is in Cullompton in Devon. Call me on 07771 591366 and I will attempt to answer any questions for you.

Cash on collection ideally please. I will accept a cleared cheque or bank transfer as an alternative. No Paypal please.

The car is advertised elsewhere so I reserve the right to withdraw it from the auction if required. Collection only

Happy bidding
