Youngest Sprite Buyer

Share this page

I'm one of the ones that hopes this is legit. Whether it was bought by the kid or not, he wasn't in a position where he "had" to buy it. It's relatively easy to back out of an eBay auction if he really wanted to. From the pics I've seen, the sills look solid, and even if it's been gutted, parts are easy enough to come by. He may not have money now...but he has sixteen years to get the job done. He could spend the next decade concentrating on raising his daughter, doing Spridget research, and putting some money away; then a six-year leisurely restoration with a young assistant mechanic.
 
I've been talking with Paul a bit, nice guy and seems genuinely excited about the car and the project.
Looks like another FrankenSprite will eventually be put back on the road!

Bigger picture guys, this story is all over the net. Shill, scam or not, I wonder how much this hurt the perceived of value of Spridgets.

I'm going to take this as a joke, seriously? "value of spridgets"?
Our cars are not looked at like Big Healeys or Jags, Spridgets are still the most accessible of Sports Cars - like they were when they came out of the factory.
:p
Anyone should be able to afford one!
Restoring one? That's a whole different financial reality!
