RE: [MarcosManiacs] Not a Marcos, but it is British...

Just wondering if anyone on the list has experience with Austin
Healey Sprites.
I recently picked up an old race car 1959 Sprite with a Speedwell
bonnet, low cut doors & Brooklands windscreens from Hayes at Wire
Wheel Classics, pix on my profile if anyone wants to see it, anyway
I'd appreciate any advice on rebuilding it (will use for street and
mild race/autocross), the body is good, but the mechanicals will all
need to be done, and I will also be looking for a hardtop, any
advice appreciated, engine, suspension, clutch etc... I do belong
to the local Austin Healey club which will help, but a lot of the
members of this list seem to be real mechanical --- so thats why I'm
bringing it up here.
Thanks,
Paul
