Sirling,
One of the best ways to find orphaned British cars is by word of mouth from the
British car community. Join the local Brit car club (if you're not a member
already) and attend as many meetings, shows etc. as you can, and tell as many
people as you can what you're looking for. Many people will know of cars
hidden away in garages or barns that may be available.

Subject: Introduction
Hello everyone, I'm new to the list, and just wanted
to introduce myself. I've finally convinced my wife
how much fun it is to drive old English cars. She's
been taking my 1960 Land Rover so often lately that we
need to get something fun for both of us to drive.
She's finally willing to get rid of her Toyota and get
something a lot more fun. So, I've been looking
around a lot at the Big Healeys and Sprites. I can't
seem to find many Sprites for sale around, where do
you all look? I've looked through every internet
classified section I could find, ebay, and many of the
club listings but can't find many. Here comes the
silly part. My dad had an MG, and it led to a divorce
with my mom. My friend Paul had two MGs that led to a
divorce for him. So, she's really superstitious of
MGs so we're only looking for Sprites. I know... but,
what can you do. :) So, thanks every one, and hello
from Kansas.
Cheers,
Stirling
