This Austin Healey ‘Frogeye’ Sprite was restored approximately 27 years ago, a process which included a respray in Flame Red and the installation of a 1275cc engine. The vendor purchased it from South Norfolk Classics in 2023, and the car has not been used since. The odometer shows 86,709 miles.
The Sprite was first registered on 25th May 1960, and the V5C indicates five former keepers. It comes with an Austin-Healey Sprite driver's handbook, a mechanical stopwatch, and a history file containing a large collection of receipts and MoTs dating back to the 1990s, and its 2023 sales invoice.
