    I think you must be one of the best in the USA with repairing and knowledge of these cars. Nice that it's coming home though.

      Glad to see all your videos in one continous segment on #4.. Again I love your simple but thorough explanations of your getting this Sprite back to running and driving condition. Cheers from East Texas.

    Steve is the BEST host ! He's so humble and knowledgeable. I don't even own a British car. I just like his channel.

    This has been a great collection of videos on this car, I watch all the originals when they were first posted, but it was great to see them all again. You make everything look simple, but really it's the way you explain what your doing, and how it all works.

    Hi Steve Yes , it was great to remind us all of this Sprites journey and even better to know it was "coming back "to it's roots ! To be honest if l wasn't so wrapped up with my 2 very comprehensive restorations , "e"type and TR6, l would love to have enjoyed many happy hours bringing this great little car back to life ! As they say "nothing on a big ship !" Thanks Steve .

    You seem young to have such knowledge of these cars, and I've always wanted one just one. Moved from Rochester New york to florida people down here ridiculous with prices. Dad raced an old 356 porsche with SCCA and I grew up watching sprites midgets spitfires minis porsches bmws at watkins glenn mid ohio lime rock and mosport (canada)

    Question. I assume these cars are meant to run on leaded fuel..do you use an additive, or does the US not use unleaded?

  • @richardbooth4573
    @richardbooth4573 Год назад +1

  • @DarkFlamage
    @DarkFlamage 3 года назад +2

    I'm sure it's fun to drive one of those, front end design is severely lacking, in my opinion.

  • @richardbooth4573
