Dave B Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Hi All, Except for the wheels this is box stock build. It's based on a Sprinzel Sprite I saw in a shed many years back. Tks for looking Dave B
Dave Ambrose Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Very cute. We have a later Sprite and MG Midget in our driveway.
Phildaupho Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Very nicely done. Really like the stripe and color combination. Wheels are very appropriate to car. I have one in my stash to build someday
Jonathan Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Nicely done. You don't see these built up very often. The old Gunze kit, correct?
Kit Basher Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 That looks great! Those old "bug eyes" are cool.
bbowser Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 That looks great! Those old "bug eyes" are cool.X2!
wayne swayze Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 That looks great! Those old "bug eyes" are cool.X3 !
Miatatom Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) I'd love to find a bugeye kit and replicate one of my old race cars. Edited September 20, 2015 by Miatatom
PatW Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Hey Bantoft, brilliant build and finish well done! A fellow air traffic marshall at Silverstone circuit here in the UK has one in that factory colour in standard trim with the steel wheels.
jaymcminn Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Fantastic build of a great little car. Well done!

mrindy77 Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Cute as a b.....oh never mind. Nice model.
Ace-Garageguy Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Great looking model, photos nicely staged too.I always loved these little buggers in 1:1, built and prepared numerous H/P and F/P Spridgets back in my SCCA days.
GeeBee Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Superb build, I put one of these together a few years ago, nice kit to build ....
MAGIC MUFFLER Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Very realistic looking - a beautiful build!
crazyjim Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 That's very cool and it's SHINY . I used to work with a guy who stuffed a small block Chevy into one.
