    Airfix 1/32 Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite Mk I (02421)

    My build of the Airfix 1/32 Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite Mk I (02421)

    A lovely little model to which I added door cards, exhaust, rear-view mirror and windscreen wipers.

              Looks lovely Dave, very evocative of a long gone era 👍

                That's a fine result. It must be tiny at 1/32. Years ago a neighbour owned a Sprite and that was so small.

                        Thank you. I used Mig Ammo A-Stand Chrome (A.MIG-2306).
