This is a vintage race car. Pretty standard, but cool.

Here is the description:

YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1965 AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE WHICH COMES WITH A REPLACEMENT SCCA LOG BOOK BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL LOG BOOK WAS LOST. THIS CAR CAN ALSO BE DRIVEN ON THE STREET. IT HAS A 1275 CC ENGINE ACCORDING TO THE LOG BOOK. I HAD THE SU CARBS REBUILT RECENTLY AND THE CAR DOES RUN AND IS STREETABLE. IT STILL NEEDS SOME FINE TUNING BY SOMEONE THAT KNOWS THESE ENGINES BETTER THAN I DO.

THE VEHICLE HAS DISK BRAKES IN THE FRONT AND DRUMS ON THE BACK. THE FRONT SUSP. HAS BEEN SET UP FOR RACING ALONG WITH THE REAR SUSP. IT HAS A ROLL CAGE SETUP WHICH MEETS THE SCCA STANDARDS.

THE STEERING WHEEL IS DETACHABLE. THERE IS AN EXTRA SET OF WHEELS THAT COMES WITH THE CAR AS SEEN IN THE PICTURES.

THIS VEHICLE IS IN GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS AGE AND WILL MAKE A GOOD ENTRY LEVEL VINTAGE RACER OR WEEKEND DRIVER.


1. Riviet on fender flares.
  
2. Pins hold the hood on.

3. The roll bar looks kind of high.
  
4. From the back.

5. Custom aluminum dash.
  
6. Door bars.

7. Stock gauges.
  
8. Fuel filler, filter, and pump in the trunk. Seeing how the roll bar ties in is interesting.

9. Combined air filter for both carbs.
  
10. Tube shocks for the front. Neat how it mounts to the original lever shock.

11. Looks like the battery tray was modified a bit.
  
12. Looks like a spare tire. Look how long the studs are.

13. These are the neat "cosmic" style wheels.
Pretty well sorted vintage race car with just a few modifications.
