1966 Austin Healey Sprite Red (MG Midget) For Sale

1966 Austin Healey Sprite Red (MG Midget)

1966 Austin Healey Sprite in Red, which has had hundreds spent already with the start of its restoration in recent years and now requires finishing.

The body is very solid with excellent chassis legs, A Posts, Floors and Sills - all of which have no rot. It does requires a repair section on the Passenger side rear lower wing (repair panel bought and included with the car) and this has been cut out ready to fit. The body panels include the front wings, bonnet, boot lid and doors - all included and in good condition, (bonnet has a small hole at the front after being blasted but could be filled).

The engine is the original 1098cc A-Series engine from when it came out of the factory which is currently removed from the car with the plan to reinstall once car repainted. The engine has covered 69k miles from new. There is however no gearbox as I had planned to put a 5 speed conversion into the car.
The running gear is all there with front disc assembly and diff assembly in good condition having been reconditioned and reinstalled when the restoration began.

I have boxes of parts including door glass, trim, lights, locks, etc which were removed ready for painting, all included.

There will be a number of parts missing including the hood which was thrown away as it was torn in several places but most parts in boxes with the car.

It’s a fantastic Austin Healey Sprite restoration project which has a great solid basis to build up on, only selling due to purchase of an earlier Frogeye Sprite.

Priced sensibly at £1, 450 ONO - comes complete with V5C, Log Book and History file.
