Okay, guys, I really messed up this time.  Original 1959 Mark 1 Bugeye 948cc. 
My starter wouldn't work.  Tore it apart.  All corroded inside so brushes
would not move.  Got everything cleaned and freed up but broke a brush spring
in the process.  They are old and brittle.  None of the usual LBC parts
suppliers carry them.  Does anybody know where I can purchase a new set or
have cross reference numbers for a readily available set from a car parts
store?  Tomorrow I visit the only starter repair shop in the tri-cities to see
if they can help, but you know how that goes!  Thanks.  Doug    ....o~'o
