The antithesis to your stereotypical American open-topped sports car, the Austin-Healey Sprite was conceived in Britain for UK roads and drivers. With a production run spanning from 1958 to 1971 over four series (known as the Mark I, II, III, and IV), it was positioned as a low-cost yet fun car that could be easily maintained. Of course, Sprites made it to many other countries, including Stateside, as evidenced by this 1959 Austin-Healey Sprite that we're selling right now. It's received a new Oselli 1275cc Inline-4 engine with just 2,000 miles on it and is your ideal weekend toy.
There’s nothing quite like a classic British sports roadster for your enjoyment in fine weather, top down, rorty exhaust note, and the wind in your face. The polar opposite of the American large car with a big displacement V8, the British roadster relies on small dimensions, light weight, cutesy looks, and an engine that produces just enough power to maintain a sprightly pace on a country road. Sounds interesting? This 1963 Austin-Healey Sprite is an ideal entry point, and it’s a numbers-matching vehicle to boot. This could be your digital detox tool for the weekends, and one to free your spirit.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs having covered a reported 53,208 miles in its 36-year life. With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
As the latest vehicles give you the utmost convenience and performance that you can imagine, classic cars continue to fill our hearts with nostalgia and a driving experience to remember. This 1965 Buick Special is one such example that takes you back to the ʼ60s when roads were filled with art on wheels. When it comes to vintage cars like this, it is difficult to find an example that is untouched. One of the main highlights of this Buick is that according to its current owner, it is all original. With memories worth 105,000 miles, this classic is now residing in Albany, New York. There is no doubt that this beauty will be a perfect Sunday cruiser and an attention grabber at classic car events.
The term icon is reserved for the best of the best. Looking back through history, there are a few automotive icons that have helped shape the current automotive landscape and continue to ensure smiles per gallon to their custodians. Present today is a true icon, and it takes shape with this lovely 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. This muscular classic from the ʼ70s guarantees thunderous performance and the best of the ʼ70s muscle car design to ensure you stand out from the crowd.
