Re: spqr
Ironically the seller "exozzybrit49" won't ship to Australia.

Re: spqr
I have had a couple of those in the past. As with nearly all SPQR stuff it is well made, if not a bit over engineered, but it works exceptionally well.
Not seen a NOS One like that for years though.

Re: spqr
This may be slightly off topic, but the post reminded me of pictures that I have seen with several Ogle SX1000s outside SPQR's premises. Is there anyone out here who knows the link between the two companies? Did SPQR perhaps work for David Ogle?

Re: spqr
It could be that SPQR supplied many of the 'component' companies of that era. I have a Mini Marcos GT brochure that features, as factory options, the accelerator pedal at issue , the Major Change remote shifter kit, as well as the SPQR engine steady kit.
I ran across a Speedwell catalog that had the Major Change kit listed also.
