no big problems , I am crusing   along.  Been very busy at home and work... I was sick for several daze with a stomach, intestine thing, I will not offer details of that. :shock:

In the past 2 weeks I've been in contact with C9 , Glen , t-slik, enjenjo and a few others.

It seems my email has not gotten through to Glen , so he called me . thanks Glen.

been cyphering on 4 bar  rear suspensions for my little cars since the wheel bases on them are at 90 inches for the Morris and Bugeye Sprite. I'd like to shorten up the rods on  a 4 bar kit to provide a litttle more floor space inside the cars

I forgot to mention ;

our daughter in law is PG...... told us a month ago.  this time twins are indicated.

Tony:  I bought a new Bug Eye Sprite in 1959, loved that car.  I put a judson supercharger on it sometime later and it really made it so much more drivable.  But when it was stock I got 50 MPG on the highway ( little 6 gallon tank took me from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, 300 miles)

Then, in 1965 I lost my license for a year (drag racing) so I tore the sprite down and put a then new 289 Ford in it with the Cobra package. It was a major undertaking, and I ruined a very nice little car. It ran like stink, and would smoke the tires at 80 MPH, but it cornered like s*** and rode like a truck. But it was a real conversation piece when I flipped up that front end.
I left the stock 4:22 geared rear axle in it, and got very good at changing axles, as it would twist the ends off every week or so.  I finally started painting a white straight line on the splined end of the axles and would pull them out every so often to see how far they were twisting. It saved fishing the busted off piece out of the housing.

I've often wondered if the car is still around.

I also had several Crosleys, but never had one on the street.

PS:  Congrats on the twins coming. My Sons are twins, and it is really special.

I can't help but think that we ought to have a garage party then and all show up to put the engine back in the station wagon. A Pro Street BBG puller might be considered "Overkill". GPster
