[Spridgets] Asking $1,500.0

[bmwwxman .]

Cool...   I owned several Mercury Capri's back in the day with that same
engine & tranny.  I think that engine was also used in formula Ford??
Anyway, it was a great little engine - OHC 2 Liter in the Capri and I
always wondered how it might work in a Spridget.

You don't suppose he'd send all 3 of them to me USPS do you?   ;-)

Cheers!!
Jim
