Some Square Sprite Goodness

I thought I'd post some pics of my '69 Mark IV. These were taken just after I buffed and waxed the car about three weeks ago. It's an older paint job, and the top surfaces, particularly the deck lid, have lost some of their luster, but there's still a bit of shine left in it.

My wife's Corolla is in front. We call that car "Little Blue" to let my daughter know which car she is riding in. I used to own a blue Subaru Outback, which was "Big Blue". The Subaru was replaced by a grey VW Jetta Sportwagen, which became "Big Grey", hence the blue Sprite, which is smaller than all of them became "Baby Blue", although it is over 4 times older than the Corolla, and 20 times older than the VW.

I have a new top for the Sprite, but haven't installed it yet. I'll have that on within the next 3 weeks or so when the weather gets a bit colder.

I love it. Great color on a Sprite. :thumbsup:
Me too, when I was a kid there were tons of Red and Green and Yellow and a few White Sprites running around town, but when I first saw the blue color it was what I always wanted, still haven't had one, but have had two a yellow, two greens, and a red :cool:

Well, I've just got to say that "baby blue" has found the right home. It's a great car, and it's obvious that David has fallen under her spell!
