[Spridgets] Gas cap

[miniac7 at aol.com]

I you  think this is a challenge, you should try ordering Mini parts. Whenever
I go in for routine over-the-counter parts such as, ignition wires, dizzy
caps, oil filters and such, I simply tell them it's for a '72 MG Midget.

NAPA will get a computer hit on Austin-Healey Sprite; not on MG Midget.

In my experiences, NAPA guys and gals will usually try to locate the part or
ne similar that you can use in its place.  Actually NAPA still carries some
pridget parts.  It is the Autozone and Advance salespeople that do not have
 clue and if it isn't on there pc screen, it doesn't exist.  When you say
ustin healey Sprite or MG Midget, many of the sales places will know what
ou mean.  Spridgets were made in relatively large numbers.  Actually, not
ery rare at all.  Except for a handful - Sebring Sprite or WSM etc.
Small town Napa or similar parts stores seem to be the best.
