the AN10 which was an AA10 and not HAN10 was the first Sprite (only Sprite) to
not
have the Healey name associated with it. It was truly an Austin Sprite.
the last H series (Healey Sprite) was in 1969 the AA10 Austin Sprite was 1970
and
maybe a few 71s, non made it to the US via legal import channels.
