I have read books that said the Sprite was continued after the contractual agreement with Donald Healey was Severed, and they were marketed as Austin Sprites, as I recall for a year or two and not too many made, maybe 1970-71?
Anyway, I have also read that they were not imported to the USA, but I remember seeing one, had the blacked out rocker panels, which had "Sprite" on them in chrome letters.
This was probably 20 or more years ago, unlikely the car was specially imported, but possible I guess.
Anyway, my question, anyone else remember seeing Austin Sprites in the USA? Or have the definitive answer as to whether they were imported here?
