Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite 1959 For Sale

This car has been subject to an extensive restoration in New Zealand to a very high standard, both inside and out, and is presented for sale in excellent condition.

Specification highlights include:
• Body stripped to bare metal, all repairs made, body hand filed, work undertaken by renowned Jaguar specialist. Receipts for bodywork alone (not including paint) exceed NZD$22, 500
• Body painted to exacting standard
• New interior, including high quality carpets, seats recovered, dash and door cards
• 1380cc engine by Lynn Rogers, including roller rockers
• High torque Calver camshaft
• Rebuilt twin carbs
• Oil cooler
• Electric fan
• Electronic ignition
• Alternator conversion
• 5 speed gearbox conversion by Rivergate
• Front disk brake and uprights conversion
• Telescopic rear suspension
• Electronic tachometer
• Four wheel alignment.

All under bonnet modifications have been carried out tastefully and have been designed and detailed to blend with the 1950s' period.

The car drives superbly. The 1380cc engine pulls very well and delivers plenty of power whilst the 5 speed gearbox makes everyday driving pleasurable. The front brake and coil over suspension along with the rear suspension conversion transform the handling of this classic. All modifications have been certified. No expense has been spared on this car - you only have to look at the panel gaps for evidence of this. I have seven files of receipts and history that come with the car (and a CD detailing the body restoration). Total receipts in excess of NZD$80, 000.

Car comes with hood and side screens and tonneau cover (one side screen needs a new rubber).

Car meticulously maintained by former Ferrari mechanic (DK Engineering).

I can help organise and facilitate shipping if required.
