I've decided to part out my sprite's drive train & go the all original
route.  SO, I now have for sale a BTW (****s to the wall) 1380 road
rocket (120 h.p.) with the following options:  Kent scatter cam, fastest
road version, fully-ported & polished head, maniflow manifold with 1.75"
SU, free-flow header AND exhaust from Swiftune,  full roller-rockers
with needle bearings troughout, infinitely-adjustable timing belt(no
chain & gears),  in-the-cap electronic ignition, 17-row oil cooler AND
last, but not least a finned aluminum rocker cover.  The motor has only
200 easy break-in miles on it & was always well cared for, as
Brittanicar, my mechs, will testify.  I have swiftune invoices showing
my cost, not including shipping OR manifold(s) of over UKL3700.  This
engine is not basic; it has ALL the Swiftune options - I have the
invoices from them & will provide you with their phone number for
verification.  Glynn Swift & his son Nick have had many dealings with
Brittanicar, with others from the Mini Club in Montreal and one or two
with me.  Just ask them about the one they built for the Midget in
Montreal!

The trans is a Datsun 210 5-speed, unmodified, with an adaptor kit from
Mini-Mania in California; the price in their catalog, including the
cable & connector bits is just over US$500.  The point is, it's a
drop-in installation, as ALL the parts are here.

I'm asking CA$4500 firm, which is not unreasonable, since my investment,
NOT including labor for installation, is over $10k.
