My clutch is starting to slip on my 76 Spit and probably needs replacing.
This winter I am planning on taking the tranny out through the interior and I

I am still here as well. I have a 76 Spit and I installed a Webber side
draft 2x barrel last spring.
The car is running well with the new carb.

I recently purchased a carpet set and new door seals for my '76 Spit from
Obsolete Automotive. It came with no instructions and they suggested that I

I need a new battery. The old one blew up while it was being recharged!
Any suggestions for a battery that will fit in the spit? A Canadian Tire
