Advertised For Sale Is one of the most well restored 1960 English Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite 1960 RHD Mark 1 in the original colour Leaf Green, the car has an original recorded mileage of 44211 miles, I have quite a lot of the original MOT certificates and the original Logbook plus new parts receipts from A. H. Spares for the restoration.
The Car has 12 months MOT and 11 months tax.
Please look at the photographs and you will realise the quality of This Frogeye!!
The difference with this Frogeye is that it has been restored(5 year restoration) using mostly Old New Stock Parts such as a new Bakelite Lucas Distributor Cap and Distributor, an old new stock heater box and numerous other original new old stock parts. The old new stock parts took me over 2 years to locate, front and rear bumpers have been professionally restored and rechromed. I even found a Brand New Old Stock Smiths Tacho Drive in its original Box from a dealer in the USA!!The locking petrol cap is new old stock from 1960 which
came in its original box.
The Car comes with a little used spare Smooth Cased 1960 “Gold Seal”Gearbox (the car has the later ribbed gear box fitted, and also a Carcoon to house the car in). The 1 1/ 8 inch Carburettor’s and Filters are original(not repro filters)and have been professionally restored. The 948cc Engine is the original and the car comes with its original Log Book and a lot MOT Certificates showing the recorded mileage.
The original 948cc Engine has been rebuilt and oil pressure and water temperature are spot on, the car comes with a new fitted stainless steel exhaust.
There is a new hood, tonneau cover , original Sprite Tool Kit, with a King Dick Wheel Ratchet(very rare)the side screens were reconditioned by A. H. Spares, there is even an Original New Old Stock Frogeye Horn !!!
The Windscreen and Wipers are new as is all the running gear brakes, shock absorbers(new not recon!!)rear springs, pipes, petrol pipe(silicone brake fluid), etc, the body work has been totally professionally restored with new original old stock panels where necessary, this car has an old new stock White Tudor Screen Wipe Push Button mechanism, this almost if not impossible to source!!!!
My Frogeye is not concourse but a well restored driveable example so please note I have wax oiled the internal and external body construction although you can see the restoration as I have used clear wax oil.
As you can see from the seating and dash all dials and steering wheel plus horn push are original specification, even the original wing mirror lights up(the car has been totally rewired using a new loom and accessories)
Please note I have priced the car keenly to sell, reason for sale we have bought a VW camper!!!!..... which will be used for holidays.
