With all due respect, I believe that Herb was correct in stating that Dark Green was only available on early AN5's. According to the Austin-Healey Sprite Service Parts List, Publication Number AKD82

We may just be debating semantics here. I consider "1959" Sprites as being those with the later windshields, in addition to some of the other post'58 improvements. I don't own the Dark Green sprite

Semantics indeed. Regardless of the date the car was registered, isn't it appropriate to consider the year of manufacture to be the critical issue? Car #5477 marked the change to the windscreen (alth

Yes, true, but the real question is.... What's the closest Rustoleam spray can color to this? And do I have to bake it in the oven, while my wife is at work? And can Toby get this color in a Quality

Yeah, I suppose we do get carried away sometimes........ but it is fun to consider and make such a big deal about all these innocuous things that happened 40 or so years ago. I often think what would

I think that they DID predict that it would happen, and for that very reason would change a single windshield in the middle of a run, add disk brakes to a drum brake car, or paint some windshield fra

This debate reminds me of research done on Mustang Shelbys and the blue paint on "original" cars. Carroll Shelby was asked if he could put the debate to rest about what was the correct color. His rep

Thanks for the story about the Bishop. I've often wondered about the history of my car - it's rare for anyone to be able to detail 40 or so years in a car's life......that makes your car very special

It is my understanding that Doug is correct, but, I also understand that 30 or so chassis were made in 61, all of which were turned into Innocenti's or CKD's. Larry Miller --Original Message-- From:

Dear Carroll, These are cute stories but don't have anything to do with the discussion as we are not talking about a shade of green. I think everyone participating in the discussion agrees that Dark

Ron, How could I forget the tire polish? I will let you in on a funny story about the NON-use of tire polish. Upon completion of the ground-up restoration on my deep pink Mk.II I immediately entered

Again according to Horler, there were 44 built in 1961, all right hand drive CKDs, with the last one on February 16 1959. IMHO these don't count as Sprites (shields up!). Doug --Original Message-- Fr

Hmmmmm, I guess I should have asked a cat first...... Are you sure your cat wasn't referring to the Sprites that are somehow related to Imps? (another LBC). Doug
