(4.1.1) '62 Sprite

Future project; details at www.raysmg.com. I have in mind something along the lines of Dominic's "Airport Racer". The MK II Sprite is a very clean car to begin with, lacking door handles, roll-up windows, and trim (none on bonnet or side of body). I'll remove the front bumper (the rear is already gone) and either remove, reshape, and/or black out the grille. The car will eventually be red with black racing stripe and interior and will feature competition style seats and harnesses. The roll bar will stay and I will likely go with Minilite style alloy wheels and bigger rubber.

The usual rust repair needed...pervasive, but not too bad.

Some 'creative' body work... a la Lowes!

Mostly original under the bonnet. The engine will be rebuilt with performance in mind.
