I stand corrected. I’m getting to the age that I’m not sure of what I’m sure of. ;):

Paul & Gary,

There were 3 or 4 different splines thru the Spridget years (that I know of).
Side curtain cars were all the same. coarse spline
65-67 had a 3/4" fine spline and a horn push on the wheel.
68/69 had a 5/8 fine spline but the wheel looked the same, no horn push, just a motiff and the horn was moved to the stalk.
70 is a year I'm not sure about.
71-74 had a coarse spline, might be the same as the Bugeye's, not sure.
And a horn push back on the wheel.

All the Sprites at least up to the 1500cc triumph motor are the same spline. And I believe the Morris is the same.
