1975 MG Midget
Project car. Overall good shape. Underside only has surface rust. Please see photos for more details on this. The sill plates and front lower rear quarter panel will need to be replaced. Parts included.
Engine runs. I drove it last year for a short distance. The head gasket went out last year. The head was rebuilt with new exhaust valves and valve guides on intake and exhaust. I ran the engine and found there is still coolant in the oil. This could be because there was a plug of coolant in the system, but I am not sure about this. I had the engine running two days ago and it was idleing very well. I did not attempt to drive the car. In additioni to the rebuilt head, it also has a brand new aluminum radiator, as well as a new water pump.
The rear brake cylinder on the left side is leaking and will need to be replaced. This is an $11 part on Moss Motors.
As seen in photos, the paint is in poor condition and will need to be replaced.
The car comes with two sets of wheels: the set that's on it and the second set that's seen in the photos. Also comes with a webber carbureator in addition to the duel Su carbureator on the car. Chrome split rear bumper also are included. I had the intention of doing a bumperless conversion on the front, but never got to it. The original rubber bumpers are also included.
I have described this car to the best of my abilities. It is a project car and should be treated as such. It is being sold as is, where is. Plan to bring it home on a trailer.
Please view photos for additional condition information.
