This 1960 Austin-Healey Bugeye Sprite competed in SCCA events in the Midwest region during the 1970s.

It was acquired by its previous owner around 20 years ago, and subsequent reconditioning included a repaint in blue as well as installing a 1,275cc inline-four and a five-speed manual transmission.

Additional equipment includes a Quaife limited-slip differential, a roll bar, dual SU carburetors, Pertronix ignition, a fuel cell, and Panasport-style 13″ wheels.

The vehicle was acquired by the seller, who has since added rear disc brakes, a second windscreen, sound deadening insulation, and a high-back driver’s seat.

This Bugeye Sprite is now offered at no reserve with removed and spare parts, literature, service records, and a Florida title...
