The California DMV title shows 1964, and always has. The vehicles VIN show the correct year (see below)
The chassis number HAN8L/61175 corresponds to an Austin Healey Sprite MkIII, and based on the serial sequence, it was manufactured in 1966.
Breakdown of the VIN:
• H = Austin Healey
• A = A-series engine (1098cc or 1275cc)
• N = 2-seater roadster
• 8 = MkIII Sprite (built 1964–1966)
• L = Left-hand drive
• 61175 = Sequential production number
Sprites with chassis numbers in the HAN8L/59xxx to HAN8L/66xxx range were produced during 1966, which aligns with this vehicle being a 1966 model year.
Thanks for looking – and happy motoring!
