    This awesome little hot rod pickup was built back in the 60’s at a junkyard down in Charlotte, NC. Someone skillfully mated a Bantam pickup to a 1959 Austin Healey Sprite chassis. Same chassis as an MG Midget


    Pickup sat for decades before being brought up to NH, and being resurrected with the following:


    New fuel tank, pump, and lines

    New brake system (master, lines, hoses, cylinders, shoes, drums)

    New clutch system (master, lines, slave and disc)

    New ignition system (distributor, plugs, rebuilt starter)

    Rebuilt Transmission

    New 12 Volt Wiring Harness

    New tires


    The little truck is a blast to drive, and is quite reliable. The British sports car running gear has a 4 cylinder Austin with dual carbs, a 4 speed, rack and pinion steering, and quarter elliptical rear suspension. Basically a big go-cart!


    Sold with bill of sale and current NH registration
