Mike,
     Another resource for parts is always welcome.  Not sure if I need a 2
speed system though.  In the 30 years I have owned my Bugeye/Frogeye I have
only been caught in the rain once here in Southern California.  Usually if
it is raining I take the Honda or even my MGB GT if it's just light rain.
The Healeys just never see any moisture from above and live life in my
garage most of the time.  Thanks you for the suggestion as tempting as it
is though.
