- I'm about ready to put the wiper motor in the bug-eye, but I had a thought that didn't die of loneliness. The wiper motor is a two-speed from a later model Spriget, and it is undoubtedly negative gro

- How do you distinguish between older, newer, two-speed, and other wiper motors. I have a few and if one is for an older car, you can have it. Cheers, Derf

- I'm prepared to recant what I said. Negative ground may have preceded alternators. Alternator use was quite late in Spridgets compared to most other cars. The tachometer tells the tale, and Smiths sh

- That sounds very plausible. I guess Spridgets served as an avenue for using up left-over stock on generators rather than shipping them out as service parts. David Lieb

- Yes. Our disagreement lies in the concept of negative ground coinciding with alternators. As Peter says, although it would have made sense, alternators did NOT show up at the same time as negative e
