This cheeky 1958 Sprite was originally an export model sent to USA when new, and was shipped back to the UK in around 2016 when it was completely restored and converted to RHD.
The shell is all steel including the bonnet and it looks if fine fettle – the green paint looks great as does the interior. The car also features chrome bullet mirrors plus an attractive leather bound steering wheel.
We understand the Sprite also boasts its original engine, gearbox and back axle.
The vendor informs us that the car has some useful upgrades including an unleaded head, brake servo, duplex chain and electric cooling fan.
2 keys plus lots of pictures of the restoration plus bills and invoices for work carried out over the years including a bill for £1360 from 2023 for engine work.
HPi clear with two set of keys plus V5c. We also have a memory stick with pictures of the restoration in addition to the pictures on file. We also have a drivers handbook, 2 x workshop manuals and restoration guide. A dust cover comes with the car as well plus a range of gaskets.
Overall this is a super example of the marque ready for its new owner.
