Well as everyone's corrected my deliberate mistake *s* (gotta give these
guys something to do) I can now tell you a little more about your MkIII Sprite.
The main changes from the previous versions were, a new windscreen
assembly, quarterlights, and as everyone's pointed out, wind up windows,
exterior door handles and locks. It lost door pockets but gained a parcel
shelf. A new dashboard and instrumentation was introduced, and a new hood
clipping onto the windscreen frame top.
The other major change was the change to the rear suspension from quarter
to semi-elliptic rear springs.
Produced from Jan 64 to Nov 67.
