Austin Healey Sprite (1958-1971) and MG Midget (1961-1979)

The first generation of the English roadster was quite appropriately also called "Frog-Eye"" due to the characteristic arrangement of the headlights, vertically on top of the flip front. Until 1971 the „Spridget“ - designed by Donald Healey himself - was built in a series of four models. We as a team at Engel Imports do our best to do our part in maintaining these beautiful classics. Our customer service is available for you at 800-851-9438 . You are also welcome to send us an e-mail - we will get back to you!
