Would just like to announce to these 2 lists that I bought a '70 MG Midget
this afternoon which is about 1 hour away. I will pick it and its
assorted spare parts up Saturday. Here is a description I posted to
another list earlier:
For $900 I got a solid, fun car. It has some dings, no major rust in the
fenders, or sills. Trunk floor impeccable and very solid. A small patch
panel under the driver's feet in which I will eventually weld new metal.
(Currently pop-riveted.) A bit sluggish, but I think the carbs just need
tuned. Engine compartment is clean, complete (no oil leaks!), and
stock-looking. Odo does not work, so mileage is unknown. 2 sets of wire
wheels; new tires, brakes, muffler, carpet; spare bonnet, hood, and door;
rollbar; hardtop; tonneau cover. Horrible red "garage-style" paint job.
Expect for me to be asking many "beginner" questions in the next few weeks
as I stumble my way through my new LBC.
