Wayne,
Go for it.
Just be sure to go back through the Spridgets mailing list archives and read
the fairly recent thread about bringing a car out of storage. It could save
you some serious aggravation.
Also, get all the information you can in books, on the web (start at
PDLJMPR) if you haven't been there yet, and through postings to this and
other lists.
And HAVE FUN!!
Hal

Subject: Tell me what you think????? PLEASE
I'm new to the list! I don't even have a car that qualifies for this
list. I am looking at a 1966 Sprite. it's a package deal with a 1967
parts car. I have never owned an Austin Healey or any other british
car. Previously drove a 1967 Datsun 1600. Until I rolled it. 2 months
ago yesterday .( If you don't have a roll bar get one!!!) . I am looking
at a couple of Datsuns to rebuild mine with, but the austin sounds like
a good deal( I think,I'm ignorant about Austins). I'm just wondering
things I should be on the lookout for. It's a pretty straight car, good
interior, no visible rust, has been sitting (well covered) about 5
years. Owner said that the engine has about 20,000 miles ago I haven't
herd it. Parked when he blew out a rear wheel cylinder. He had no time
for it because of new family. He is asking $800.00 for all. Please tell
me what you
think!!!
Thanks Wayne
