This is a neat car whose best feature is the rear suspension.
Here is the guy's description:
1962 AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE (Clear Title) Stock outside custom underneath. This is definitely a driver's car, restored 12 years ago using new panels and floors, and a lot of custom work to make it a joy to drive. This car has a custom roll bar with side bars connecting to a hoop that is hidden under the dash. It has front-disc brake conversion using a 1967 dual master cylinder, all new suspension system with custom-valved front shocks and a coil over system in the rear, using adjustable ride-height bilstein shocks, with carrera springs. There is a panhard rod system in the rear. I'm a former racer so a lot of extra parts ended up on my street car, along with a removable steering wheel. The trans is stock and works fine. The engine is completely rebuilt .30 over with a decked block, a rebuilt head and new valves and springs. 1-1/4 carbs rebuilt for more power. Headers with a custom exhaust. New mags and a lot of stuff that I can't think of. The car does not have a top I only drove on sunny days and is always garaged. I never put rugs in they are inexpensive, I prefer to be utilitarian and don't care for them in these cars. Everything works!
