Anyone know where one of these is laying around here in the states? I was going to order one and have my friend in the UK ship it for me. But I thought I would see if one was sitting a garage or barn somewhere state side. Its for a MKII Sprite or MKI Midget (later model shown)

In Sprite Spot there is a current listing in Sell / Swap for a lister across the pond claiming to have some original / new Ashely Fastbacks. Was posted new on there just last week. I think these fastbacks were located in Austria.
 
Yeah I know those, Van de Rijt is selling them. He shipped one over here already but they are for the Bugeye only.
 
Back in the fall of 2012 there was one in New York State at a British Parts dealer. Unfortunately I can not find the link to it. At least it is a start.

Mike, if you get one, please post pictures and reviews. I love those things!

I know someone on the east coast with one. Not sure if he wants to sell, but I let him know. You might hear from hear from him, but I'll let you know if I do first.
 
I am talking to the Bugeyeguy about importing a new one with his order. But everything else on the car is vintage I would like to find a old one.

I have found a few in the UK used but the MK1 Midget/MKII Sprite one is pretty hard to come by
 
Do you still have the Ashley hardtop ? Is it the Mk1 Ashley hardtop for the Bugeye or later style for square back car ?
Thanks
Lew
