This well-preserved, 1960 Austin-Healey Bugeye Sprite is a timeless classic, originally manufactured nearly six decades ago. Owned by the same dedicated enthusiast for over three decades since 1995, this iconic British roadster boasts several distinct modifications that amplify its spirit and charisma. Underneath the hood lies a roaring Chevrolet 350ci V8 engine, featuring a B&M supercharger, beefy Demon dual carburetors, Mallory ignition and Crane camshaft, all combined to deliver an impressive surge of power, taking this Bugeye's spirit from its era to a new dimension. The current owner installed these enhancements around 2013, showcasing their commitment to preserving the vehicle while infusing it with modern flair. Beyond its performance upgrades, the car retains many of its original charms, with a steel-tube chassis and all the playful lines that made it a sensation in the early sixties. Despite its vintage roots, this Austin-Healey Sprite stands ready to capture attention on any road or track today. Located in Brentwood, California.
