  • Re: Anyone used this front section floor repair panel?

    I bought both and replaced the floor on both sides of the car. I didn't trim it to fit, it's the whole floor for one side of the car. You should know that it's not enough to cover the whole transmission tunnel. I replaced both floor panels, then just used a piece of sheet stock to fill the space in between.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

  • Re: Synchro Cones

    This makes a lot of sense, but it didn't work in my case. The front is sitting really high as well. I thought it was just because the motor was still out of it, but I put the motor in and it didn't even sink a little.&nbsp; &nbsp; With the rear, I took the weight off the springs, removed the rear bushings and greased them up. After putting the ...

  • Re: Bleeding the clutch

    I can't believe how many times I've jacked this car up, I even went as far as removing the started to get to this screw, I never wondered why they put a hole there. I guess you learn something new everyday.

    Hey Motor Bill,&nbsp; &nbsp; When I posted that, I was hoping that you'd be the one to answer. I really do want to do the Rivergate, and intend to one day. But not today, today I picked up a second hand rib case, and will run that for a while. The economics at my place have changed slightly, and while I'm going to finish this project, I need to ...

  • Re: So I just bought a '67 Sprite Mk IV....

    Hey Ron,&nbsp; If you haven't found them yet, check out&nbsp;Apple Hydraulics&nbsp;for your shocks and swivel axels. The guy there is really great to deal with and they have most of the parts for you car already rebuilt and in stock. I spent around $1k for all four shocks, both front A arms and two swivel axels, That also included all the ...

  • Synchro Cones

    Hello all,&nbsp; &nbsp; It's been a while since I've posted, I've been working hard on my 67 Sprite and it's almost done! I replaced much of the sheet metal and it came out nice and straight. I painted the engine compartment, and mounted up all my new suspension (Thanks Apple Hydraulics)and this thing is just bolting right up these days. I dug ...

  • Re: So I just bought a '67 Sprite Mk IV....

    I also have a 67 that I'm getting ready to strip down to the bones right now and do a ground up restoration on. I just made the room in the garage and have been getting the rest of my ducks in a row. I'm hoping to remove the anti- theft and rust features, it's in the plan, but we'll see.&nbsp; I thought I would share a couple of literature ...

  • Re: Give it some gas and it dies

    I might need some help in the area, first I want to get it on the road for a quick run around the block. I&#39;m waiting for clutch hydraulics to arrive from victoria just now. I&#39;ll need to be able to get the transmission out of neutral to be able to load test it. Right now, it needs to be babied bringing it up from idle, but once the revs are ...

  • Re: Give it some gas and it dies

    You&#39;re right about the engine size being wrong, the previous owner replaced it with the smaller engine, I&#39;m not sure why. I&#39;m searching for a good donor 1275 right now to no avail. But the 1098 runs now so I&#39;ll have some fun with that for a while.&nbsp; Turns out the problem was #1 old gas, and #2 clogged pathways on the ...

  • Give it some gas and it dies

    I just bought on Saturday a 67 Austin Healey Sprite MKIV with a 1098 motor. The previous owner spared no expense with a Malory dual point distributor and a Weber 40 DCOE 151 carb. The cap and wires are old, I&#39;ve got a new set on order, I put new plugs in yesterday and they are already covered in soot. With the choke all the way out the engine ...
