1958 Austin Healey Bugeye Sprite, Stored 35 Years

It has the RARE windshield stantions for this early body. Comes with soft top, I have been warming it in the sun. It has been folded for 35 years and needs gentle handling. Comes with tonneau cover — again stored all this time, but in great shape…. has roll bar. Front bonnet is nearly perfect… no serious dents or dings……. will need floor pans– drivers side has a 6″ X 6″ rust spot near the throttle pedal… and the battery tray has the usual rust issues….. has typical bubbles on the lower “A” pillers and such…. doors look good.

Comes with the early correct 948cc motor and I believe it is the original motor for this beautiful 1958. The 948 still has the riveted ID number in place and is unmolested (9A U-H 27XXX). This early motor includes dual carbs (still bolted to the head and never removed), early distributor cap and wires, stamped rear engine plate, fuel pump (only on the early engines) and such…… Engine  and ribbed case transmission removed by previous owner in 1969 and placed on the floor of garage and not touched again for 35 years!   Have 2 new door skins and some extra patch panels too….

Has original seat frames with original upholstery… Dash is intact with original gauges, including original ignition switch and original chrome grab handle, hard to find generator driven tachometer. Including original wiper motor, original smith heater, original radiator in great shape…etc has boxes of stuff like an original jack, the two air cleaners housings.
