1961 Mark 2 Austin Healey Sprite in Old English White with a 1275 A series engine.   61. 00 miles.  An increasingly rare car which has retained much of its originality.    Owned by me for the last 13 years during which time it has proved very reliable and great fun to drive.   It has just passed its MOT – due to expire 28/8/2017.   The car was previously owned by Chic Doig (http://www. chicdoig. com/) who sold me the car in 2003 and who has carried out various repairs on my behalf over the years to get through the MOT.    It is for sale as I have acquired another classic car and this one sadly has to go.   Works carried out during my ownership include a new hood. finding an original steering wheel (very sought after). new carpeting. electronic ignition. mechanical fuel pump. new half shaft. rebound straps/bump stops. clutch slave cylinder. brake bleed screws. outer sill. inner & outer rear wheel arch. speedo cable. cable bonnet release. door strap. bottom hose. battery. starter. side screen rubbers. washer pump. halogen headlights. rear springs (RHS). miscellaneous welding repairs & repainting etc.      All receipts during my ownership available to the purchaser and also receipts going back to 1998 by previous owner.   The engine was stripped down and rebuilt in 1998.    The photos hopefully give a fair representation of condition.   The seats (original vinyl) could probably do with replacement but I personally like their patina and lived in look as it adds to the character of the car.   Additive used to unleaded petrol.   4 speed & reverse original gear box (no syncromesh on 1st).  Drum brakes all round.  Original number plate so is transferrable.  Tonneau cover.
