| Sprite-Kestrel Sports Saloon in original condition For Sale (1936) edit C66516 | | | Really nice unmolested example of genuine Sprite Kestrel.
Correct-type 1 1/2-litre Riley engine, has done very little mileage since rebuilt, in good running order: single carb currently fitted, but twin SU carbs included, along with assorted spares.
This car was part restored by the previous owner of 40 years, even if he wasn't hoping to win awards. Paint not as good as the impression from the photos.
Certain body parts, e.g. boot floor board, intelligently redesigned for reasons of practicality, retaining original appearance and style.
Last road-legal (NZ) in 1979, has been in storage in the driest place in New Zealand ever since; previously (re)stored in Kenya. The body sound but needs some cosmetic work to finish, rear window nds fitting. The interior reupholstered in very acceptable red vinyl: new headlining needs replacing. Correct Sprite instruments, 5" tacho and speedo. As-new tyres on excellent correct Rudge wheels. Some useful spares. The original UK registration presumably not cancelled when the car left UK, should still be obtainable from DVLC. The price suggested includes shipping, you pay port costs and landing charges.
