A sad little Minx....

...for sale southwest of DC. Looks like it's for parts, but if anyone needs it, it's a reasonably good deal, I think.

I can't remember which of these later Series Minx' has the spindles that Alpine/Tiger owners can use to lower their front suspension without chopping their springs.

Searched a few other clubs' forum discussions. Sunbeam Minx Series V & VI have the spindles, as well as Rapier IV's & V's, which rarely made it to the States. SuperMinx' do not have this spindle.

The drop spindles are on the cars where the original platforms ran 15" wheels and they then switched to the 13s the body was lowered down to the wheels via the spindle
