BMC

The British Motor Corporation would have had to have been mad to have offered a car like this Austin-Healey Sprite back in 1965. But today's enthusiasts like yourself have no such concerns. In fact, you’re egged on by the spirit of Donald Healey himself, who always intended the Sprite to be a fun, affordable car that could be tailored to suit by owners of modest means--especially those owners who wanted to go faster.

As a basis for such a project, it's hard to find a better candidate than the MkII through Mk IV Sprites. Overshadowed as they are in the marketplace by their charismatic Mk I "Bugeye" predecessors and the bulldog "Big" Healeys, these so-called "square" or "box" Sprites are one of the most outstanding bargains among British sports cars.
