Since this was the ONLY 67 Sprite project for sale on the internet, I 
had to buy it. OK, it's an easy project.
There were a few other 67s for sale but they were 68s and 65s, not 67s.
I am swamped with work, and no end in site. So the Sprite has to wait.
Hey, I did work on it Saturday and gutted the thing including the floors.
I read where people plan a whole weekend to drop a gas tank. I dropped 
the tank in 2 minutes, it would have been less but the clamp on neck 
gave me a fit. I yanked the engine and trans in 10 minutes before dinner 
after work one night. Some people plan a month for that project ;)
And with several weekends already booked up, this car may take me until 
Christmas to finish.
