I just purchased a Sparrow that needs part of the front and rear repainted. The paint was rubbed off the front and rear when the previous owner had the...
Darryl, I painted the front three fenders on my Sparrow, first I put on just the PPG paint and it was dull. So I took it to a shop and they gave me some stuff...
The easiest way to find out if it has a clear coat is to look at the first-layer dust coming off when you sand paper it. If it matches your paint color, it...
These are all good ways to test for a clear coat, and you do need to test yours, because various Sparrows had various paints and coatings. Mine (#189) is...
John, I just replaced my throttle pot and now everything is velvety- smooth. All jerkyness is gone. I had tried to clean my pot in the past, but nothing...
I'm sure this has been covered to death, can anyone recommend an insurance company other than McGraw? Either way, what are people paying for a year of...
On the East Coast: Try GMAC. I have recently insured through Nationwide with some other vehicles as well. Some folks have had luck with State Farm. M. Bonnie ...
When I went to insure my Sparrow, I called over 20 agents before getting insurance. Finding insurance seems to be a common problem. I suggest we all write to...
Wade, that's a great idea. Brilliant. Needs development obviously, but it's just the sort of kernel that someone could write effective legislation around. ...
Myers Motors will be at the SF auto show starting this weekend. I will be there at least this Saturday and Sunday and if there are people in the area that...
In California Fran Pavely (I think that's how her name is spelled) is quite supportive of EVs and PHEVs. This should also go to the insurance commissioner as...
Does anyone know where I can find anyone who sells the Sparrows wheels? I need to get a new rim, and the companies website does not have any contact links. Any...
... wheels? The Pacer rims have been discontinued. In fact, it is getting more and more difficult to get 13" rims that fit the Sparrow. Try American Racing...
Alternatively, you could take the chance to upgrade to the 14" rim. I am using 14" rims now with the low rolling resistant tires that are used on the Honda...
A full size model can be seen at the SF Car Show http://www.myersmotors.com/Poster4.htm I know this isn't Sparrow related per se but I thought you would like ...
yeah that is MORE like it. I was TRYING to get a Sparrow but seeing that ride makes me want to wait a little bit. It looks better than that two seater George...
I know this isn't exactly the right group for this but I suggest to EVERYONE to check out who killed the electric car. They talk briefly about a LOT of things...
... This link would be interesting if it provided some information or a link to information about Qui Moto. Maybe somebody saw the car at the San Francisco...
I was at the show yesterday. I may go again this afternoon. Dana Myer was there and would be there today. The Qui Moto is a 2-seater concept car with tandum...
I met with Myers yesterday at the auto show. They didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know about their new vehicle, except who they bought it from....
The sprocket broke off of the rear axel of my Sparrow last week. From the pictures that have been posted, it looks like several other people have had this...
Actually the NiMH batteries weren't built in Michigan they were built by Panassonic in Japan. "Who Killed the Electric Car" is now available on DVD and can be...
I flew down from Portland Saturday morning to go to the show. It was well worth the time to see all the new advances in electrics. The Phoenix Motors concept...
I very much agree. The major auto companies didn't have squat in concept vehicles. I was a little suprised Telsa didn't have more of their roadsters, and Zap...
Another show coming up that some of you in So Cal might be interested in will be at the Santa Monica Airport. I called offering my Sparrow for display, and got...
This could be the Holy Grail for EV's. Is it too good to be true? Batteries with high energy density.. 10,000+ cycle life... recharge in ten minutes. ...
Maybe it's time again for a reminder that: "This group's subject is the Corbin Sparrow or Myers-Motors MnG electric vehicle. It is open to present, future and...
