1969 Austin Healey Sprite

 The 1969 Austin Healey Sprite- I had the pleasure of owning a '69 Sprite although mine had been repainted "safety orange". Fun little car even though we push started it more times than I can count and parts acquisition was difficult at best. There was an MG dealer about 30 miles from my home and they were very helpful- at one point they pulled parts of a car on the lot when I was in a jam. We also made some brackets and machined a new banjo bolt for a front caliper ourselves. Impossible to get that bolt!

Today we can ride along with this proud owner as he takes us on a short demo cruise.
