Where are all these sprints coming from?

I'd love to own/build one.

There were a limited number built by BMC I believe as track/race/sprint cars, hence the name. But you can buy sprint shells, I believe they are fibre glass also!

Sprints were never built by BMC, they were designed and built by Neville Trickett and Geoff Thomas (GT Equipment, then sold through Rob Walkers Corsley Garage) later the production rights were sold to Stewart and Arden, the original cars are metal. There have been lots of replicas over the years, both metal and fiberglass, but to be an original Minisprint it's got to have been cut and welded by the people and companies mentioned in my opinion ( fair play to anyone that's done one themselves though)

these are not the arches the mcLean Bros are offering are they ? And the wheels are 13x8 instead of 13x7 right ?

Yeah the wheels are 13x8 and the ones in this pic are the ones he's selling but he has now fitted special ones but his brothers mini still has them and their front spoiler/splitter

Thanks, thought the arches looked different. The red mini mentioned in the beginning of the thread also has them and they seemed different that's why.

The other red mini mentioned above has 10x7 potenza with yokohama, hi lo and bilsteins.

That grey and red mini have interesting wheels you posted there Alex 95 !
