To: Brian Morse Cc: Spridgets net Subject: Re: [Spridgets] Yahoo Group site change Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Brian, There are quite a few lists for Midgets and Sprites among the Yahoo groups. They are indeed email lists but you can also direct your browser to the Yahoo group page where you can read and post messages as well. Different people like to do things differently. I like to get my messages via email so they are all in one place. Others prefer to go to the relevant Yahoo group page instead. To each their own... You can go to www.Yahoo.com and select "Groups" for an example. There are literally a million groups for the discussion of just about anything you can think of.

Also try http://www.spitbits.com for steering rack bits.

Some new no-name dipper switches have an internal fault that will short power to ground when depressed. If held in the depressed position it could burn up your main wiring harness. The part is widely used on many brands of British cars, especially in the 1950 to 1965 production period. The switch is patterned after Lucas type FS22. but it is not a Lucas part. It is a replacement part for BMC part number 1G2007. Known bad parts came from Moss Motors (171-900) and Scarborough Faire. They have been notified. Moss has placed a stop on sales of the part pending investigation. If you have one of these no-name dipper switches, use a continuity tester or ohm meter to check resistance from the center input terminal to the housing when the switch is depressed. Check it through at least two switching cycles, because it only shorts on every second cycle of the switch. If you have one of the switches that has this ground fault, please let me know, and also the name of the supplier if possible.

For 75 and up, check for the 2 jack holes on the rocker and the reinforced front bumper frame rails. Also look for the "hibs" under the tail lights. RB cars did not have them as the bumper was right there.A true 74 will have the round arches, hibs under the tail lights and only one jack hole. They will not have the frame rails for the front bumper either.

Thank you for sharing. You are right, he pushed the car hard right out of the gate. At the end I bet he said what he was supposed to say, but I wonder what he really thought. I had to watch it twice- once for windshield view, the other foot work and gauges. Heel toe in loafers! Thinking back I wish I would have spent more time appreciating his talent rather than rooting for his car not to finish (having been a Schuhmacher fan). 3wheel On Mon, Sep 9, 2013 at 12:47 AM, Michael MacLean wrote: > Here is a short video of the late Ayrton Senna test driving the "new" Honda > NSX.

Chris Manuel, Peter & Jane Caldwell, Ron Soave, & I (who am I forgetting?) got to meet Mark and put a face to the man who lives in the bowels of Ether-dom. Meeting Mark, Kas Kastner(2nd time), and seeing (and hearing) the TR250K was a big thrill. Thanks to the boys from Seattle, who have taken great care of the car, for bringing it to Road America. It was also good to talk to Peter Egan. I'm sure he was tired of answer questions about his retirement but is always gracious. Best of luck Peter and I'm subscribing to Cycle World so I can read your exploits there. Thanks, Mark, for all you do. Go Team.Net! Don't forget to donate!

Anyone else find this problem? What's the fix? Is there another source that has the correct part? The inner sleeve is bonded to rubber, so fixing the current bushing is probably not an option. Is there any source for the "pin", the one that passes through the bushing and secures the spring to the diff assembly?

While pulling out from a stop, I heard a ping and lost the connection between the motor and the ground. I instinctively thought broken axle.. call a tow truck and took her home. Once home I jack up the rear end confirmed my diagnosis, order two axles and two bearing kits. This morning I decide to tackle the project and heres where the fun begins. I jacked up the drivers side and confirmed no connection, wheel turns easily without turning the other wheel or the diff. Disassemble and discover that I can pull the axle out about < and now Im reconnected to the diff. It appears that Ive sheared off all the splines on the shaft and have just the little bit of spline that were poking through. The problem is that its most likely screwed up the splines and I cant get it to come out. Im using a 10lb slide hammer to no avail. Im able to get it to come out about 1/2 , Ive tried beating it back in and re-clocking it to another notch about ten times without any change. My hands are bruised, my arms sore, and Im out of ideas.

I lost track of how many times it moved back and forth but just a little bit. Being able to knock it out from the inside of the diff was a major challenge. None of my punches were able to reach through to the broken off piece. Finally I found a small diameter rat tail file that would make contact with the axle piece. I just kept beating the piece out a little and then back in. Then all of a sudden it was laying on the floor. In the process about an inch of the file broke off but at that point it was worth losing it. I gave a lot of thought to just giving up but then what would I do. All I can say is just keep doing what you have been doing and I wish you luck.

It is possible to put a 1/8 inch shaft past the cross shaft, but I doubt you will be able to get enough force to drive out the axle. When I was 16 years old, I discovered that the stands used for floral arrangement at gravesides used steel material that was the correct size to drive out an axle spline that had broken off. I used that technique to replace an axle on the side of the road on the way to school one morning. I only missed 1st period. I have never seem axle splines sheared off, but with replacement axles coming from anywhere, I suppose it is possible. Particularly if they were not properly heat treated. I think the answer is to rotate the axle until the splines at the tip of the axle are engaged, then use pry bars on each side and try to lever them off. It might also be possible to drive a two chisels between the axle flange and the bearing to put steady pressure on the broken part. Once you have the chisels in place, hit the axle on the end to loosen the pressure. Then drive more of the chisels into the space. Eventually, it should come loose. As a last resort, you could remove the axle housing. Cut off the back of the housing behind the ring gear and then use a drift to drive out the old axle. Buy another axle housing, trade all of your good parts, and you are back in business. You would at least save the differential that way.

Ive walked in the past and have learned first-hand that the Walk is a life-changing event, uniting thousands of people around the nation to fight for the same ultimate goal  a world without ALS! ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is also known as Lou Gehrigs Disease. This fatal disease currently has no long-term treatments or a cure. The Walk is coming up again very soon, and that means its fundraising time again. WAIT!!!!! Before you dismiss this email, thinking Are you really asking me again? I hope youll consider a few things 1. People are still getting diagnosed with ALS. Now, more than ever, those suffering with this devastating disease need our help. The money you donate not only funds cutting-edge research, but it also provides critical programs for families affected by ALS. Did you know that it can cost up to $200,000 per year to live with ALS? 2. Military veterans are twice as likely to get ALS as compared to the general population. These are brave men and women who fought for our country and now it's our turn to fight for their lives. 3. Still not feeling inspired? Then, I want to tell you exactly how ALS affects its victims. The motor neurons in a person's brain and spinal cord waste away. When the motor neurons die, the muscles become paralyzed. Gradually, a person is robbed of the ability to walk, speak, eat, and eventually breathe. Upon diagnosis, doctors give ALS patients only 2 to 5 years to live. Research funded by The ALS Association continues to make great strides in helping scientists understand more about ALS, but there is still no known cure for this always-fatal disease. We must do more to help those suffering. As you know, I am asking again for your financial support in my quest to raise funds for The ALS Association through theWalk to Defeat ALS.. Please click on the link below to go directly to my personal fundraising page. No amount is too small. Every dime makes a difference. http://www.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=1045079&supId=3446 14597 Sincerely, Kristi P.S. Please forward this email to as many people as possible. We need more people to support the fight against this awful disease.

I downloaded a couple of the pdf versions of the service parts manuals - akd 3566 & aid 3567 and compared them (very quick look) with the paper akd 829 that I have. The downloads appear to be significantly more comprehensive (they cover the Mark I and II Sprite and the Mark I Midget). There's a bit more in explanation of use of the manual. The reprint quality i the pdf version (particularly in 3566) isn't great, but seems acceptable on quick glance. Certainly cheaper than the eBay prices I've seen!

Happily, we're down to final assembly. But, as with many of these projects, we've hit a snag. The left shock link went in, and is lined and looking great. Right hand side, not so much. When we disassembled the right side, we found the shock siezed and the link was pretty well trashed. Now that I'm putting things back together, I think I see why. The shock isn't lined up with the spring. It's displaced outboard, which puts a lot of strain on the link and consequently the shock itself. I rechecked everything, and the axle's assembled correctly. I'm thinking about putting fender washers under the shock to move it inboard and put everything in to alignment. Has anyone run into this before? Any ideas as to cause?

The arms are bendable. You might have the wrong shock also. It should have either 7401 or 8681 stamped on the lower edge of the mounting boss., depending on year.

No, I don't need to know about $20,000 ones, this is going to be a daddy-daughter project. I can weld but I prefer not too and my daughter can do the motor, etc. so I guess something not too rusty would be nice but it appears from research that a lot of panels are available if I needed to redo the floor etc. I found a shell nearby, but it is only a shell, no title, no vin tag and the back end has already been cut up to fit a RS1 motor and BMW E30 swing arms, no interior, no glass, no nothing, seems to much work for us to consider (and I think he wants WAY too much money for it anyway). Looking at that "rose" one on Ebay but the rust seems pretty extensive, however the price is our range, if only it was on this coast. This will be my daughters daily driver when done.

Turns out they are for a Capri and have a different bolt pattern. So now I'm just looking for a decent set of whatever bolt-on wheels for the sprite/Midget. Can't be too choosy. I have things I don't need and can deal with trades or trades and cash one way or the other depending. (1) I have a set of four Rostyle wheels for the classic Ford Capri (RS2600 & RS3100, the sexy European, they called it). They will also fit Ford Pinto, Alfa Romeo, Sunbeam Alpine, Mustang II. 4x4.25" (4x108) bolt pattern. (2) I have my old wire wheels, wire wheel hubs & rotors, knockoffs & wrench, and a complete wire wheel differential with a known good center section/pumpkin (with 20K old mile axle bearings and wheel cylinders) for trade or partial trade. Wheel splined hubs and aluminum splined hubs need replaced. They are truly worn out but the rims and the inner hubs and the entire diff with 3rd member are nice. (3) Or I might consider trading my spare complete 1275 engine with standard bore and standard crank. It's a nice mill that I have been saving as a spare but I could let it go if some sweet rims pop up. See it in this Craigslist ad. The head has slight evidence of blanking plug recession. I just had a plug replaced using Hap's instruction for $65 total. I would feel OK about braking the glaze and doing a quick refresh on this engine and running it. it's better than the one in the car, but since I have an A15 waiting I will not be using it. ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Tue Sep 24 17:13:13 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2770D40400 for ; Tue, 24 Sep 2013 17:13:13 -0600 (MDT) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from nm47-vm9.bullet.mail.bf1.yahoo.com (nm47-vm9.bullet.mail.bf1.yahoo.com [216.109.114.218]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 42A59400FF for ; Tue, 24 Sep 2013 16:25:59 -0600 (MDT) Received: from [98.139.214.32] by nm47.bullet.mail.bf1.yahoo.com with NNFMP; 24 Sep 2013 22:25:17 -0000 Received: from [98.139.212.224] by tm15.bullet.mail.bf1.yahoo.com with NNFMP; 24 Sep 2013 22:25:17 -0000 Received: from [127.0.0.1] by omp1033.mail.bf1.yahoo.com with NNFMP; 24 Sep 2013 22:25:17 -0000 Received: (qmail 35379 invoked by uid 60001); 24 Sep 2013 22:25:17 -0000 s=s1024; t=1380061517; bh=erPcW6/qDueA9Fk+wxO22Yuhsr+W4CTplooH7RVZhIE=; h=X-YMail-OSG:Received:X-Rocket-MIMEInfo:X-Mailer:References:Message-ID:Date:From:Reply-To:Subject:To:In-Reply-To:MIME-Version:Content-Type; b=vJTAxuntPwltwuC0U4A5TUEige2+nZ5g0jerkSz2kjdQ/aoka84ldKgYw+qBm+R6HDfoCiw/IKL4JYEXTfw3WnGfZtGknWYJvlau3KAAoeeTpFcecHYTv0yE4X5rYdrxI/lllijbZabsds0sjnNC3eV/xzzcSCqS8PqH+yhrFwQ= s=s1024; d=yahoo.com; h=X-YMail-OSG:Received:X-Rocket-MIMEInfo:X-Mailer:References:Message-ID:Date:From:Reply-To:Subject:To:In-Reply-To:MIME-Version:Content-Type; b=LfITtg22ul3S6UQR6INkH+lYQojJ3bUFRY7QZF8ooygC6qG9L8pf7feGKYEN8LVqv6cbK4yabvV1W1umBfwGNS39Qocp9XZ3R6zKDqDMye1JRBdepM3giJLfkBRnE3Sol5PgteXZrTljwZ+dPfp3qKFE5ynYwCvTIIHtH0XihaY=; yNM97XochObI1V3l2j70aRYV7YoiTOU_Z3VUDh78fo33NfupyNpgktKmwnCR 3fHUWdS7g89PxFTlR3JVQonML1fl1OCw_NcHQ6zqZF6WO5PPEvL4iDQJg1fa pRy6BaSI01iflIDasIv8821qfDM8FX3e433Yfyl4J5qPJCZGs7v_BTIyb4Y9 xgziPblTqY.QOy.pSrP8jxd9IBMOeqLQohTQ25X12vrgAVuTveOKD11aRrEj 8Nzo5oQLCi0TZPauWBrphGD7mQbK3ncG9jWKsiLHYzkcPj4B0uN7pLPTLWUm .a5VFifr20baqP6kU52pxxmHQOGY9n8JmSk86SGA00I7XDPafgH7me3_st.f 75wp_KCk5AbOC0fUZcAq0PhsGJ6hTI7Ue1hXQW1OxIT_zu6mDx_Nk4nuiGZA 3tuI7uS84xNwVrhl79Ha.T3m8H2IsUYoxtUbWCoy77RjCRKVKwY7SbVTVpBZ bJjVBMgaBY.y0vSIPYBmSSWpzfGX9kGw._enib8mrGNdIBUT0ccXpbxQDe9h wBqgrn6zcqsKtC2xaujCYnq2TxIQp_rsSsW5gq.NoFQ.2.MaN9xqUDzzmnsA WFX7oJDPzOE.I9MYUBnnp4YUUU3.VmDJhiDYLErg- Received: from [72.89.98.67] by web141406.mail.bf1.yahoo.com via HTTP; Tue, 24 Sep 2013 15:25:17 PDT Tm90IGF0IGFsbCBEYXZpZCwgSSB0aGluayBtb3N0IG9mIHVzIHdobyBhcmUgZXZlbiByZW1vdGVseSBhY3RpdmUgaGVyZSBmb3VuZCBvdXQgdGhlIHNhbWUgd2F5LgoKRGF2aWQgQm9va2VyCgoKCl9fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fX19fCiBGcm9tOiBEYXZpZCBHcm91bmR3YXRlciA8ZHdnd2F0ZXJAaG90bWFpbC5jb20.ClRvOiAic3ByaWRnZXRzQGF1dG94LnRlYW0ubmV0IiA8c3ByaWRnZXRzQGF1dG94LnRlYW0ubmV0PiAKU2VudDogVHVlc2RheSwgU2VwdGVtYmVyIDI0LCAyMDEzIDM6NDIBMAEBAQE- References: <000f01ceb937$1e9da1f0$5bd8e5d0$@com> , <1380041158.87556.YahooMailNeo@web141404.mail.bf1.yahoo.com> Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2013 15:25:17 -0700 (PDT) From: David Booker To: David Groundwater , "spridgets@autox.team.net" Subject: Re: [Spridgets] FW: Mystery Tool Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Not at all David, I think most of us who are even remotely active here found out the same way.

It does not slide on the rod and it weights maybe 3-5 pounds. The rod is die cut at one end. The rod and cylinder are solid stainless steel. That little pick thing was also in the box. The quarter was not.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net I need a part from a dead ribcase tranny. I'm in the process of swapping mine out with another I bought because a tooth from my first gear decided a sedentary life amongst the dredges in the bottom of the box was more alluring than the constant-motion life up near the top. Anyway. The tranny I bought is missing a little bolt on the driver side near the top of the rear portion of the shifter remote linkage mechanism. The bolt has a very thin head on it (as in it doesn't stick out very far from the surface it is threaded into) The bolt shaft is hollow and holds a spring with a metal cap over the end. This cap presses against the shift levers inside and I believe helps to locate neutral. This entire bolt is missing from my "new" tranny. My initial thought was "no big deal, just take the one from my old tranny and be done with it". Good thought, but... As it turns out, there are two different sizes of these bolts. My car is a '71. Thanks to Brian Seavey, I know that a smoothcase tranny has the same (too large) bolt as my ribcase does. The diameter of the too-large bolt shaft is around 1/2". Thread size I need is 3/8" coarse. Since the Smoothcase is the same as my '71, I'm thinking it may need to come from a RWA car?? So... If you could all go look at any dead tranny's you may have out behind the garage. I'd REALLY appreciate it if you'd let me buy this bolt and the spring and cap inside it.. I can't buttion everything up till I find one. Help!

I don't have a spare the size you need, but these parts can be left out and the trans will still work fine. All they do is stop the shifter from rattling. They can be added later even with the trans in the car. Sent from my keyboard On Sep 27, 2013, at 8:27 AM, David Booker wrote: > I need a part from a dead ribcase tranny.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net David, Your description is a little confusing, so help me here. The "bolt" properly described as a cap, that angles to the driver's side is the same size from late smooth-case through all rib-case, and many other BMC trannies in the day. Part number is 22A85. I have some used ones, and it is indeed 1/2 inch thread. There are two other "bolts" back there.... one faces left at 9-o'clock and one rearward parallel to the shifter opening, and is drilled for wire. The early smoothie up to ch.# H25508 used cap number 2A3354, which I don't have. Is it possible you have an early remote housing? Let me know.

Well, the RTV holds really well...and that's my problem. Anyone know of anything that will disolve RTV? I've been trying to run a thin knife blade between the glass and the bracket, but no joy. Ideas? Besides buying a new piece of glass?

Hello David, I believe the bolt you are referring to is the bolt that retains the "anti-rattle" plunger and spring. I don't have a spare the size you need, but these parts can be left out and the trans will still work fine. All they do is stop the shifter from rattling. They can be added later even with the trans in the car. Sent from my keyboard On Sep 27, 2013, at 8:27 AM, David Booker wrote: > I need a part from a dead ribcase tranny.

Hello David, I believe the bolt you are referring to is the bolt that retains the "anti-rattle" plunger and spring. I don't have a spare the size you need, but these parts can be left out and the trans will still work fine. All they do is stop the shifter from rattling. They can be added later even with the trans in the car.

It faces straight out of the left side of the remote housing. I checked with a known bolt and it is 3/8" coarse. The other two you mention - one pointing roughly 45degrees back and to the left, and the other, which has the wire and locking tab that is to the right side of the tranny, but facing straight back. Does that help any?

David, Your description is a little confusing, so help me here. The "bolt" properly described as a cap, that angles to the driver's side is the same size from late smooth-case through all rib-case, and many other BMC trannies in the day. Part number is 22A85. I have some used ones, and it is indeed 1/2 inch thread. There are two other "bolts" back there.... one faces left at 9-o'clock and one rearward parallel to the shifter opening, and is drilled for wire. The early smoothie up to ch.# H25508 used cap number 2A3354, which I don't have. Is it possible you have an early remote housing? Let me know.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Rick, Actually, the one I'm missing is the one to the left and below your number 1. The top of the point of the #1 arrow in your illustration is very close to the bolt I'm missing. I can't really tell, but the one in your image seems to have a sensor or a switch incorporated into it. (at least it looks like there are a couple of wires attached there). The one in my original tranny does not have any wires, so I had assumed this one did not either. As far as looks, the one from my original tranny looks very similar to your "number 2" bolt in that the bolt head is very shallow in depth. Sorry this is all so confusing, folks. I really do appreciate all the efforts here. I'm going to go over to my storage facility and dig around to see if I can find any old books and see if I can do any more to help identify the missing bolt. - David ________________________________ From: Rick Fisk To: David Booker Cc: Peter Caldwell ; spridget Sent: Saturday, September 28, 2013 3:14 PM Subject: Re: [Spridgets] Anybody have a dead ribcase out back?

I really appreciate all the efforts of everybody who helped out, dug through parts boxes and piles of trannies, looked up and/or scanned images in books & CD's etc. As is always the case - this is by far the best group of folks I've ever had the luck/privilege to be associated with. I'll let everybody know how it goes. BTW - Jim's does have some sort of sensor or switch incorporated into it, which reinforces my initial thought that this is a later ribcase. I guess these two wires power up some sort of light in the dash or something on RWA cars that is not present in my '71. Once again, Thanks to all!

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Just bought a 58 Ford F-100 today for 3k. Straight 6 . . runs perfect. No rust . . straight body. 3 from the column converted to 3 on the floor. I hear that the wrap around rear window adds to the value. I actually was not aware of this. Before I bought it I did a thorough check on Hemmings for asking prices of F-100's of the same year . . as well in the same realm, a couple years before and after. I could not find one for less than the asking price of 10k with restored and better examples much higher. So I figure that I am not at much risk paying 3k for a nice example although in primer gray.

Could easily have been very different outcome.. When I was a kid, my next door neighbor used to race a red square body Sprite down at the fairgrounds.

She did not see me as she swung over the speed bump while I was lining my under carriage to cross over the middle dip in the speed bump in a parking area. I am actually happy. The body shop will align the hood and fix the dent and then shoot the front of the car in Wimbledon White single stage. I am prepping the rest of the car to be painted at the same time. So for a $250 deductible and a little extra I will finally be rid of a horrible yellow paint job. Next . . ordering a red interior kit with white piping on the seats, etc. I will finally have the Bugeye that I used to take rides in when I was ten years old (a young guy who lived across the street . . . his father bought him a new Bugeye Sprite and he would take me for fast rides to attempt to scare me). So his white with red interior Sprite imprinted on me from that time forward. ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Suggested annual donation: $12.75 Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/spridgets/tncarnut1@yahoo.com ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Sun Sep 29 07:16:08 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2B99842733 for ; Sun, 29 Sep 2013 07:16:08 -0600 (MDT) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from email.mtu.edu (mx1.mtu.edu [141.219.73.15]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7D14540E67 for ; Sun, 29 Sep 2013 07:15:43 -0600 (MDT) Received: from TIM2.mtu.edu (107-213-7-140.lightspeed.sgnwmi.sbcglobal.net [107.213.7.140]) by email.mtu.edu (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 8E2444B3D; Sun, 29 Sep 2013 09:14:36 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2013 09:14:39 -0400 To: Kirk Hargreaves , Spridgets List From: Tim Collins mail.com> References: Subject: Re: [Spridgets] 58 Ford F-100 Value of Wrap Around Rear Window?

Kirk, Can't help you with the window question, but I was at the Northwood University auto show yesterday and saw a booth by Classic Instruments. They had a very nice display of instruments - one I noticed was for the F100 (don't know the year but they can do custom) I am enjoying looking at their catalog (available on line too). They sure have a lot of nice gauges! If you need gauges and want custom, check them out. I'm not affiliated with them - they are a Michigan company, however, and we need your money in our state!

I rebuilt the ribcase in my MKII earlier this year, then ripped a spring out of the clutch plate that jammed into the pressure plate, fixed that, then lost all of my oil due to a bolt backing out on the oil filter housing extension, fixed THAT, just finished putting a MKIV wiper motor and system in, and it wouldn't start, FIXED THAT, went to go for a drive, and NOW it won't go into any gear. The shift lever will move out to the reverse detent just fine, but it moves both fore AND aft when in reverse location, and it will not move fore and aft (i.e. into any gear) in any other shift position.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Quite true, it also applies to the Chevys with the curved corner windows. The bed was originally white oak IIRC, once had a friend with one that had a flathead 8 in it stock, what a lot of grunt it had! Enjoy!, don't the the BE go wanting for attention though. Mark Haynes It only goes one way-Pay it Forward HAN6L12977 AN5L8016 From: Kirk Hargreaves To: Spridgets Just bought a 58 Ford F-100 today for 3k. Straight 6 . . runs perfect. No rust . . straight body. 3 from the column converted to 3 on the floor. I hear that the wrap around rear window adds to the value. I actually was not aware of this. Before I bought it I did a thorough check on Hemmings for asking prices of F-100's of the same year . . as well in the same realm, a couple years before and after. I could not find one for less than the asking price of 10k with restored and better examples much higher. So I figure that I am not at much risk paying 3k for a nice example although in primer gray. I plan to shoot it in factory two tone, a slight off white top half and red bottom half. Does anyone know about this wrap around rear window in terms of adding to the trucks value? I was told by some folks today who saw it in a parking lot that the wrap around rear window by itself would be very expensive to source if anything happened to it . . almost close to what I paid for the truck.

I.e. this is for the F4W56L transmissions whereas the Spridget kits use the "60" version of the transmission.

While I know nothing about racing, it seems like it might be a way to have a race quality 5 speed gearbox in a Spridget. One would have to use one of the adaptor plates for the a series engine. Would this be worth while on the track? Would the rules allow it? $3500 seems like a lot, but would it be worth it for that little edge over the competition? http://www.peterzekert.com/for-sale/transmission-rear-end/115-datsun-a-serie s -transmissions Rich Ball ------------------------ ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/spridgets/rich_ball@mindspring.com ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive
