Since 2000
Owners, racers and enthusiasts have shared the stories, photos and history of the Sebring Sprite here for more than 25 years. Almost everything on this site was sent in by people like you.
A note from Jez
Hello, I'm Jez Hayter. For more than 25 years Martin Ingall built SebringSprite.com into the home of the Sebring Sprite, gathering the history, the cars and the people behind them. Taking the site on from him is a privilege, and I know they're big shoes to fill.
What we all share is a love of these little cars. I'll keep adding your news, cars for sale and stories, and Martin is kindly helping to keep the history right. This is your site as much as mine, so if you spot something that's out of date, have a car or story we haven't covered, or an idea for how the site could be better, I'd love to hear from you.
You can email me at jez@sebringsprite.com or info@sebringsprite.com, or use the forms on the site.
Jez Hayter, SebringSprite.com
Owners' cars
Every car on the site has its own page, built up over the years from owners' photos, race results and memories. If you own one of these cars, or know where one is now, please tell us.
The works cars, the Sprinzel coupés and the privately raced Sebrings of the period.
Sebring coupés and fastbacks built since the early 1990s, many from Archers Garage bodywork, and now raced and rallied all over the world.

Going racing
Sprites have been winning races since 1959, and you can still race one today. Sprints and hillclimbs are the cheapest way to start, and you can use the car you drive on the road.
Planning to race a Sebring coupé or fastback in historic events? To be homologated, the bodywork has to be built in aluminium, as in period. Fibreglass is only accepted for the bonnet. Read about homologation papers.

Martin Ingall created this website in 2000, with the blessing and support of Brian Archer and his team, who had helped him build his own car. For more than 25 years he spent an hour every morning reading your emails, publishing your news and researching the histories of the original cars.
In 2026 Martin handed the site on so it can carry on growing. Everything he built has been kept, and we hope you'll keep sending in your stories just as you did for him.
Dedicated to the memory of the late Brian Archer, who fulfilled his dream to re-create John Sprinzel's Sebring Sprite Coupé.
