this might seem like a really lame question, but where is the reset
button for the trip on a Sprite or Midget. We have two that we are
restoring, but I'll be damned if I can find the reset button on either.
And what is the deal with a glovebox shelf on Midgets, are they supposed
to have these selves? Neither of ours does.Your help is apreciated, Mark
Snowdon
69 Sprite
73 Midget
79 Midget 1500
