Thanks for the responses on hubs for my '60 Sprite, I'm following up a
couple of leads now.

On reading the manual, however, I see that new bearings must be
"pressed" into the hub.  Can someone help a poor programmer that happens
to be working on a car -- what does it take to press the bearings in?  A
bench vise?  A hammer?  A $100,000 machine shop?

If I find hubs that still have bearings in place, should I just use
them?  Do the front bearings wear out?

Thanks!
