CONDITION
This 1961 Austin-Healey Sprite “Bugeye” Mk I is a rare survivor from the final year of production and delivers the pure, lightweight roadster experience these cars are known for. It is an honest older restoration that has aged well, presenting nicely while still being a car you can confidently drive and enjoy. Mechanically, the engine pulls strong and the gearbox shifts smoothly, making it ready for backroad driving today, and the gearbox has synchronized meshing in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. The body and chassis are remarkably solid for the age, with minimal rust present on the driver-side floor pan, while the overall structure remains very solid and the rear shocks and spring area are solid and robust. The interior is in healthy condition with an original dashboard that is clean and free of blemishes. The original carpeting is in place and may need replacement. The odometer is broken.

HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO OWN AN ICONIC CLASSIC IN OUTSTANDING CONDITION!

 If there was 10 stars I'd give them a 10. 

I've dealt with many people & have quite a few cars. Dealing with Vintage from start to the end of the deal was excellent.  The communication is great. They have such a great selection of cars there and everything about them is so professional. I even mentioned they have a VW Microbus that if they fix a little they can get double the $$$ but they don't do that & they have some gems. I love the place & I totally trust them with any deal.

I can't say enough about my experience! 

When I bought my 71 MBZ 600, I thought that I was paying a high price, but when I got my car, I realized that this was the best car in my collection. Thank you Tom for selling this car to me.

This seller has a huge & impressive inventory. Nick showed me the vehicle I bought and I found he's not your typical car salesman. He's very knowledgeable and was a pleasure to deal with. The day I picked up my car I got a glimpse of where they detail and service their vehicles. I saw the time and effort they put into their inventory. I don't normally leave reviews; but, I was so pleased with my experience I felt I needed to.
