Beautiful. I love Sprite. A friend of mine here has a 1959 RHD.

Funny how this works. I buy a sprite for 500 bucks, and if I add the cost of tools and shop to do the work, I end up right around 100K!

Wonder if I will get my money back when I sell the car?

Nice work. I especially like the electrolytic rust removal.
