Meet a one-owner Austin-Healey Sprite that sat in a garage for close to 50 years.

Jay Leno has said his favorite cars are original an unrestored. His 1959 Austin-Healey Sprite, featured on the latest episode of"Jay Leno's Garage," fits into that category.

This Sprite was a one-owner car, so Leno thought it would be better to preserve its originality rather than undertake a full restoration. Leno's shop cleaned up the car, repaired some dents, and rebuilt the engine, which was necessary to get the Sprite running again.
