For sale: 1958 Austin Healey Sprite (titled as a 1959)

 

19,000 original mile car, unrestored, in time capsule condition. A true
"survivor car". certainly one of the finest examples of an unrestored Bugeye
in the world.

 

"Survivor cars" are rapidly growing in value, and the rarity of this car's
condition attests to its "investment quality".

 

This car won the Road & Track Reserve Award at the 2006 Brian Redman
International Challenge Concours in Elkhart Lake, WI.

 

This car was also featured in the January issue of Road & Track, in Peter
Egan's "Side Glances" column.

 

Details on its documented history,  condition and pictures at
http://www.thicko.com/Walter.htm

 

Car runs like a Swiss watch. Comes complete with original soft top and side
curtains (with bag). Currently sits on Michelin X tires it last raced on in
the early 60's.

 

It is very drivable, or showable as it sits. 

 

$22,000 or best offer.
