This is a test

Was out messing in the garage again, lovely day here and found these. Do you know what they are, Bugeye for the black thing and Spridget for the other that is not even cleaned yet.

Jack, you'll wind up rich with all the great finds. I haven't a clue what they are, but I'm sure they're made of unobtanium and very valuable. ;-)

The uncleaned object is a brake adjuster. The other part doesn't look like anything on my Mk 2 Sprite.

 

[Brian_James]

Looks like a bonnet prop bracket to me.

Very good Nelson, the black one almost looks like a piece of the heat shield.

 

[jlaird]

Brian got it correct, prop bracket/clip for a Bugeye and I do have the rest of it.

And for the other item.

Hint. These go on all Spridgets.

Hint. There are three.

Hey Jack, is that Bugeye bonnet bracket and clip complete? Tunebug's missing his bonnet prop assembly...

 

[jlaird]

I have the whole assembly including the rod and both ends.

PM sent, Jack...

 

[Trevor Jessie]

Stud for a wiper motor?

 

[jlaird]

Bingo Trevor, you have played deep inside the Ugly Bug.

 

[Trevor Jessie]

Those are only on early spridgets, once they went to the twin line MC they changed the mounting location/type.

 

[jlaird]

Prob through about 64 or 66 I should think but then I am not an expert on square bodys at all.

 

[Trevor Jessie]

'67 was the switch ... I think.

 

[spritenut]

67 still had the single speed wiper motor but it was moved to under the fender to clear the larger pedal box. But since it was impossible to get to, they moved it again in 68 when they went to the 2 speed motor. On the top of the inner fender.
So Jack's wiper mount stud is good from 58 thru 67. Different mount on 68 on.
1967 does have a weird wiper rack tube. Ask me how I know :wink:
