Description:

This 1969 Austin Healey Sprite
is a blast to drive and runs like a charm. Think of how fun it would be to enter the Stone Bridge Drivers events at the Watkins Glen Grand Prix Festival on September 11, 2015!
I purchased my Sprite in 2009 from a gentleman who restores Bugeye Sprites; I was told the car was restored a number of years earlier.
There are no leaks and the car runs and drives great.
Body and paint are in great shape. As you can see from the pictures, there is some bubbling on the panels behind the rear tires.
Interior is clean with new carpet, reupholstered seats, Austin Healey mats and yes, an 8-track player (8-tracks included). All gauges and lights work as intended.
The top is in great shape and is easy to put up and down. There is a spare and jack in the trunk. I'll include the car cover and trickle charger.
I keep the car in my personal garage. I have never driven it in the rain or snow. In the winter it is stored it in the back of my garage; I start the car periodically and rolling it forward or back to prevent flat spots on the tires.
As with all vehicles of this age, I’m selling the car “As Is” and will have No Warranty or Guarantee. Upon commitment to purchase the buyer is required to make a $500 deposit within 24 hours.
