Hey Sprite Guys:

I am restoring a 1967 Sprite MKIV.  I hae a LOT of projects going at one
time--this is involving a total stripdown to body shell and engine rebuild,
etc.  I have come to a minor impasse on one item--and many of you, I know,
have dealt with this one.   The rear oil seal, on the rear of the
transmission--Where the drive shaft slides into the tranny:  HOW DO YOU GET IT
OFF?  It looks like it has been crimped around the edges with a cold chisel.
Considering the aluminum tranny case I didnt want to be too rough with it. Any
suggestions will be appreciated.  Thanks.
