I have always been facinated by the discovery of the yellow steering arm on the Sprinzel Sebring Sprite.

Well today is cold and dreary in East Tennessee well suited for a day in the garage. I've been putting off the nasty job of cleaning up the front suspension of the new Whitephrog but decided that today I would get started. To my suprise as the layers of grit, grim and grease disappeared I begin to see spots of yellow paint on the steering arm. The more I cleaned the more yellow I found. Seems as if AN5L/9382, produced 2 January 1959, left England on 6 January on her way to Yokohama, Japan with yellow arms.
