Well I got my Sprite today. The owner del it for $20 not bad. Not sure of the year Sn#HAN8L/5056X? The wife still has the camera in Greece so I can not post pictures.There is only a bit of surface rust to deal with.The car came from California so we just need a light sand and repaint.It's really nice to find a rust free car to work with.

Its got a 1275cc engine which I think is the wrong one for the year.

Going to need the following to get ready for road.

One side mirror
Rear bumper
Window winder handle
Want orginal steering wheel.
The turn signals switch seem to not work.

Mark, as a reference point, HAN8L-50192 was built in February, '65, and 52666 was built in June.
The original engine would have been a "big crank" 1098, 10CC-DA-H XXXXX.
