 Hi Bill and everybody,
interesting coincidence to see this post today...I was just going through a=
ncient emails and found some correspondence with Paul from 11 or 12 years a=
go.=C2=A0My ribcase box at the time was stuck in first gear and Paul instru=
cted me how to fix it.=C2=A0
He also described a more permanent fix, of a "spacer on the shifter rod so =
the shifter fork can't go way forward against the case"=C2=A0
As I had converted to a Datsun 5speed, repairing the ribcase wasn't urgent =
at the time.
I'd like to put it in my Morris Minor along with the 1098 out of my sprite =
(1275 now). =C2=A0
I wonder if anyone ever got one of Paul's home made spacers and can describ=
e it sufficiently for me to fashion something suitable?=C2=A0 Perhaps you c=
ame up with something on your own? A strategically placed cable tie?
cheers,
Andy Webster =C2=A0(first post to the list in a long time... and=C2=A0I jus=
t realised it is over 21 years since I first found this community. )

 Hello Jeff,


=C2=A0 Somewhere in my pile of stuff I have the what may well be the LAST
=C2=A0 of the kits Paul made. It was one of two in his garage when we
=C2=A0 cleared it out after he passed away. .. complete with the tube of JB
=C2=A0 Weld.

=C2=A0 Now if I could only get to that area of the garage and hunt for it.
