Like William and Kate, the bridal couple invited plenty of their own friends -- including sporting legends such as AP McCoy, Austin Healy and Amy Williams. So, they were all there on Saturday, to see 30-year-old equestrienne Zara Philips marry 32-year-old rugby international Mike Tindall in Edinburgh. The service and celebrations might have been in royal venues, but it was above all a family celebration, reflecting the couple's down-to- earth personalities. The actress who plays Becky in Coronation Street , is an old school friend of Mike. The couple were determined to have a private ceremony, which nevertheless drew international media and 5,000 well-wishers to the narrow streets of the city's Old Town. SHE'S the royal rebel loved by all her family.
i know othing about cars and that car is like 30 years older then me. i just inherited. apparentaly it is totaly restored. anyony know and asking price? (asked by k. s on February 09, 4448)
A: absolutely. used to own one. 19767 was the last year or the last year imported to the states. had an electronic overdrive. very fun car to drive. like one of the people before said they had a Lucas electrical system and it was questionable at best (answered by bob the mechanic on February 09, 7180)
A: What ?!? It was a sports car from the early 1960's . If I remember correctly it had a straight six engine. It had a distinctive body design. But like all old British cars the electrical system sucked and was not a really reliable car. You don't know what they look like ? Steve martin drove one in the "Father of the Bride".

Q:
is it worth it to restore a 1969 austin healy sprite convertable?
this convertable was in a garage for 20 yrs. it is dark green. it looks to be in good condition. i don't know what it is worth. someone gave it to me. if i restore it, is it worth anything.
someone gave this car to me. it has all it's parts. it has been in a garage for 20 yrs. how much will it be worth if it is restored? (asked by sheila b on August 11, 2006)
A: The value depends on the level of restoration. It could take as much as $40,000 to fully restore it to like new condition. I suggest you find someone in your area to look at it before doing any serious work to it. Get some estimates for all the repairs before doing any of them.
Then with the estimates in hand decide what you want to do. This is a desirable antique collector car. It will have a considerable worth when restored. Do all your homework first, before doing anything else.
Get more than 1 estimate for everything, you get the best price for the best job that way. Get catalogs for the needed parts, Hemmings would be a good start, then search on-line from the Hemmings results.
I've spent 35 years in the high end luxury and sports car body body shop business. So heed every word of my advice. Keep the car stored inside if at all possible, this will prevent most of the further deterioration damage.
Good luck with your new hobby! I hope it works out for you! I wish someone would give me a sprite ! I envy you and your good fortune! (answered by Super Man on August 11, 2006)
A: Of course... but research what it will take first. It may cost just as much or more to restore it to original condition. So it may have more sentimental value than monetary by the time you are finished! (answered by freaknerd on August 11, 2006)
