MG Midget (1976)
for sale
Price: US $0.99
Price: US $0.99
I am selling my 1976 MG Midget
Convertible, at NO RESERVE. This car is an incredibly solid example, and a
terrific driver. It comes with the Weber Carburetor conversion, and a brand new
top and tonneau cover! This car is ready to enjoy, and just in time for the
upcoming spring and summer weather!
This MG is in excellent
running and driving condition, and has had a lot of recent work. Work done
within the last 10, 000 miles includes:
- Weber carb conversion
(original carb included in sale)
- New clutch assembly
- New clutch master
cylinder
- New intake manifold
- New Fuel pump
- New Battery
- New Rear brake shoes
and wheel cylinders
- New Master cylinder
- New horns
- New light lenses
- New axle boots
- New top (not installed
yet)
- New tonnneau cockpit
cover (not installed)
- Many new electrical
parts and wiring
The new top and tonneau
cover (cost over $700!!!) have not been installed, but are easy to do. Also
included is an entire new snap and trim set for the roof. A haynes repair
manual is also included. All of the lights and electric components work as they
should!
The body of this MG is
almost completely rust free, save for a couple minor rust bubbles. The floors
are 100% solid, as are the trunk and rockers. The car looks great from 20 feet
away, but as you get close you can see that it has it's share of dings, dents, paint chips, and scratches. Nothing really major though, just the expected wear
and tear you would see on any 40 year old car.
The brakes are pretty
stiff from sitting, and should be gone through. I'm suspecting the front
passenger side wheel cylinder needs to be replaced. I drive it as is now, but
the brakes are very stiff. The catch strap for the driver door needs replaced, and has caused a minor wrinkle on the door jam (see pic). The center console is
in place, but not screwed in, so that a radio can be easily installed. Not
pictured are the original spare, and the original ashtray, but they are
included in the sale.
Here is a link to 53
photos of the car detailing all its attributes, and flaws. here
Here is a video I took of
the car running. It always starts right up and runs great!
