Up for bids is my 1962 Austin Healey Sprite Mark 2 Roadster. It is upgraded to a 1098 CC engine and front disc brakes. I have owned the car for the past 11 years, ut in the last 18 months, ave gone thru the car to ensure safety and reliability. It runs very well, olds 50 lbs. oil pressure at 160 degrees at 950 RPMs. I doesn't overheat or smoke. The transmission shifts smoothly, oesn't make unusual noises or pop out of gear. All lights work, irectional signals, orn, eater blower, indshield wipers all work. All gauges work (tach is a bit "bouncey"). The paint is good and the interior is very nice, ith no rips, ear, orn areas or pulled seams. New carpet. Tires are new and the hubcaps are near perfect.
Below is a list of all new parts installed in the last 18 months:
Rebuilt carbs
Major engine tune-up
New SU fuel pump
New fuel tank
Rebuilt starter
New battery
New rear brakes cylinders and shoes
New front rotors and pads
All new brake hoses
NOS front shocks (rear shocks are good)
New front end bushings
New tie rod ends
New rear trailing arms
New clutch
New clutch hydraulics
New master cylinder
New carpet set
New front bumper
New exhaust system
New belts, oses, ilters, tc.
New tonneau cover
New top
The body had very little rust, hich was cut out and new metal welded in. The windshield is very good as are the side curtains (new seals). I have a clear Maryland title, n my name.
While this is not a total restoration, t is a very nice, ood running and driving Sprite. The only things you my wish to addressare replate/replace the rear bumper and fit the correct windshield washer bottle (and yes, t does drip oil). The odometer shows 83,480 miles and the title states 86,437, ut I have no way of knowing which is correct. So assume correct mileage is unknown.
