I send the wife away to Greece with no kids for 10 days and I go wild and buy a new toy.Should start moving to the garage now or just leave?

1964 Austin Healey Sprite.

Neat car - I may have some old hubcaps that are for it!
 
Only thing I see is that the bumper is asque but I like it. A nice clean good looking little car.
 
move into the garage now! install a fridge fill it with beer
maybe put up a separate mail box for the car magazines.. and Moss catalogers
 
Nice clean little car, good find.

You can always hope she won't notice... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
 
Nice car - will it be a "full sized spare" for the Big Healey - did you find it in TO?

A trip to Greece sounds like a fair trade-off for a new toy!! She should return with a more relaxed attitude (esp. since it was without kids!)!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cheers.gif

Leaving is not an option with that large amount of cool cars in the garage. Some how I have a feeling it will all be ok when she returns... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/angel.gif
 
I have not seen the car in person but from the photo's and the price paid it seems like a good deal. It's going to the wife to drive since I have a family of four. So the boy's get the Big healey and the girls get the Sprite.

I will post some more pictures when I get it on the weekend I have until Monday night to move it on to the patio since I'm out of room. I have parked lots of stuff on the patio and she always wants new furniture so I will pick her up at the airport and tell her we got new patio furniture.

Very Nice.
