1967 Austin Healey Sprite
Just showing my newly aquired project. I am still restoring my air ride vw bug but this will be a fun little project to have a nice convertible to cruise town in. MY debate is should i rat rod it and leave it like it is or clean her up with a nice paint job and new top, etc. Im thinking either flat black with red rims............or.........cherry red with black stripes and black interior. Which do you prefer!!!
On its way home!!
Some exterior shots. Has new rear quarters, rockers and door jams. Just need to be welded correctly cuz the last owner didn't know how to use a welder!!
The interior is all there, just needs to be cleaned up. The dash is in excellent shape and the top still works cleanly with one small tear. If you look close in the left pic you can see the floors are gone in it.
And finally the 1275 engine..after some tweaking i got it running and she purred. I don't even know when it last ran!! The previous owner had it garaged for two years so
Hopefully i can get more pics soon and show you guys my project! Im hoping to have it on the road before winter, but that may be wishful thinking!
page two drivers floor pan and rocker repair..or should i say replacement!!
