Gerard,
Thanks... Yes, I have all the original parts... and then some... I'll have
to make a list of what I have and don't need to give away... or sell...
Talking about selling parts, I have just seen this add on the net:
"1960 AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE, handbook, $74" ... Geez... Do they really go for
that much?

Yep. You probably needed to add the "age.htm" at the end of the wrapped

You probably have them already, but don't forget rear view mirrors.
