1. The 3.7 axle ratio is endemic to the 1500 midget. An attempt to increase
the fuel mileage to meet the US standards.
2. Converting a 1/4 eliptic car to 1/2 eliptic is something not for the faint
of heart. Essentialy what you would have to do is graft the rear section of a
1/2 eliptic car onto the earlier body. Everything (suspension-wise) from just
forward of the spring hanger rearward would have to be replaced. Not a task
recommended for the odd week-end project.
