Check pages 12 (in particular), 52, 65, and 189 of Sprites & Midgets, The
Complete Story by Anders Ditlev Clausager.
Check also the Moss Spare Parts and Restoration Catalog Edition SPM-04, if
you have it or a similar edition. The part can be found in Chrome & Trim in
my copy, part number 031-585 or 031-580.
Further, like most things, simplicity wins out over complexity. The old
less-is-more syndrome, as it were. You might consider having either a
Bugeye/Frogeye on the back for those with Mk. Is, or a square-body to
accommodate the Mk. II-IV/Midget folks. Three cars on the back is a bit
much in my opinion.
Later, you might consider something I've seen with the 356 group and I think
would be favorable for the Spridget crowd. Think about a simple embroidery
or applique with a head-on shot of a Bugeye or square body. A
representation works wonders and is immediately recognizable. These cars
have a face that is a pleasure to look upon and is held with a certain
amount of esteem and admiration by those in the know.
Regards,
Bruce Henderson
