AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE, BUGEYE, 1960 OFFERED. THIS IS A VERY SOLID CAR AND IS AN EXCELLENT CANDIDATE FOR A CONCURS RESTORATION. THE PICTURES TELL THE STORY OF THE SOUNDNESS. THIS BUGEYE HAS NOT BEEN ON THE ROAD SINCE 1979. THE ENGINE IS FREE BUT DOES NOT RUN. THE MASTER CYLINDER IS GOOD, THE CARBS ARE GOOD TO RUN. THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL. THERE IS VERY LITTLE RUST WITH THE ONLY RUSTED THRU AREAS BEING THE FLOORBOARDS UNDER THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS FEET AND THE GAS TANK. ALL OTHER RUST IS SURFACE ONLY. THE ONLY PLACE I HAVE FOUND TO BE REPAIRED ON THE BODY IS ON LOWER FRONT OF THE RIGHT SIDE FRONT FENDER. THERE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN A CREASE DENT THAT WAS REPAIRED AND THE PAINT DID NOT MATCH (SEE PICS). THERE ARE A COUPLE OF DENTS IN THE RIGHT REAR FENDER (SEE PICS). THE REMAINDER OF THE BODY IS VERY STRAIGHT. THE RIGHT SIDE SEAT PAN IS RUSTED OUT WHILE THE LEFT SIDE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. ALL GAUGES ARE STILL INTACT AS ARE THE SEATS COVERS. THE RUBBER FLOOR COVERING HAS BEEN REMOVED TO ENABLE VIEWING OF THE FLOORS, THE MATS WERE DISCARDED. THE TIRES ARE NEW, THE TOP BOW, SIDE CURTINS, AND ORIGINAL JACK ARE THERE. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY AND OWNERS SERVICE POLICY ISSUED WITH THE CAR FROM THE DEALER IN SANTA MONICA CALIFORNIA. THIS CAR CAME FROM CALIFORNIA TO ALABAMA AND I BELIEVE HAS BEEN INSIDE MOST OF IT'S LIFE. SINCE THIS IS AN ALABAMA CAR, IT DOES NOT HAVE A TITLE, TITLES WERE NOT REQUIRED HERE UNTIL 1975. PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR MOTOR VEHICLE DEPT. ABOUT REGISTRATION. YOU ARE WELCOME TO COME INSPECT OR TO GET AN APPRAISER TO CHECK IT OUT. PLEASE EMAIL ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. THIS CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AND SUBJECT TO THE LISTING ENDING EARLY. THANKS FOR LOOKING!
