Austin-Healy Bug eye Sprite...
Smallest of the A/H cars and a cousin of the MG Midget...
I helped a friend campaign one in (H Production?) SCCA Racing, "Back In The Day"...
Just wish I could recall what day that was???
I do recall that the beer available was Stroh's... horrible bear ****... oh, no, that was Hamm's...
Well, it all was cheap and terrible stuff, but we drank it anyway...

Circa 1964???

Thanks, all. That car probably has the most personal "face" I've ever seen on any car...

My father owned one and said all that was required to change lanes when passing was to bump the door.
