A Spridget bodyshell has appeared in the local scrapyard. Very little left of
it but enugh to identify it as a wind-down window model.
But it has Drum front brakes?
It has been used for autocrossing.  Would drum brakes be less liable to wet
and mud when autocrossing? Perhaps they have been retro-fitted

Anyway, the front kingpins and shockers seem to have been replaced recently
and are probably worth getting.  Are the front swivel hubs the same on drum
and disk brake set-ups?
