Vehicle Detail
1958 Austin Healey Bug Eye Sprite. Pulled from a local garage, been resting for 40 plus years. The owner told me the engine was rebuilt a year or so before it was parked. Some ignition pieces were missing so I installed new plugs, wires, rotor cap and hooked up a battery. Also has a new starter switch. The carbs were stuck a bit so we used penetrating oil and free them up. It started up and runs quite well. No brakes so I cant drive it. The car has significant rust. There is no title, it was lost in a flood. Sold with Bill of Sale. includes, spare tire, roadside jack, convertible top bows, new lower radiator hose, the lids for the gas bowls are included but not in photos, The car shows 1000 miles, this is incorrect. Don't know real mileage. I have a business e bay site called waymorestuff, please review my feedback there. Call with questions Dave 734-692-7151 at work during day. I don't know the value so I'm starting here and letting it run, its a true auction with no reserve! High bidder will get the car. Car is as is, no warranty intended or implied. No pay pal, payment upon pick up onlyOn Sep-29-15 at 17:13:03 PDT, seller added the following information: The dash and cowl look pretty good as well as the trunk area. Some rust through in floors particularly on passenger side also on lower outer body, can be seen in photos. Front frame looks good too. Small spot on firewall is worn through by upper edge of battery. I've seen this happen to cars where the battery retainer came loose, it's a small repair. I'll ad a new photo showing the carb parts back on carbs, on Wednesday AM.
