Isn't there a Spridget on you brother's farm that needs to be disposed of?
And then again, I'm positive the Northeast Oshit team can cobble up a 
fairly nice Spridget for $250.
I know I have a few jump out of gear trannys, a 1275 that turns over, 
loads of used engine parts, a dozen carbs, 1/2 doz dizzys, gennys, etc.
