**************************************************************
THIS IS AN ESTATE SALE AND NOT MY PERSONAL CAR. I AM REPRESENTING IT FOR
OUR CLIENTS AND HAVE ONLY LIMITED KNOWLEDGE OF IT. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE
VERY UNUSUAL CARS THAT I GET CALLS ON TO REPRESENT. THIS ONE HAS ME
STUMPED. LET ME START BY SAYING THIS 5.0 FORD ENGINE RUNS AND DRIVES
GREAT. TURN THE KEY....IT FIRES RIGHT UP, SHIFTS PERFECTLY....GOES DOWN
THE ROAD EXTREMELY STRAIGHT. I DID NOTICE SOME TIRE BALANCE ISSUES IN
THE FRONT AT ABOUT 40-50 MILES AN HOUR. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTOS,
THE INTERIOR IS NICE, NEAT AND CLEAN, AS IS UNDER THE HOOD AND THE
TRUNK. IT'S AN UNUSUAL CAR BECAUSE..... 1ST IT IS AN MG MIDGET BODY
PLACED ON A 5.0 FORD PLATFORM. THE PHOTOS SHOULD SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
THIS CAR DOES NOT HAVE A CONVERTIBLE TOP, BUT I BELIEVE YOU COULD PUT
JUST AN MG MIDGET CONVERTIBLE TOP RIGHT ON IT. MY SUGGESTION FOR EASE OF
SHIPPING WOULD BE TO SPEND AN ADDITONAL $350 FOR A COCKPIT TONNEAU COVER
WHICH WE COULD ARRANGE HERE IN SOUTH FLORIDA. TIRES ARE ABOUT 60%. THE
PAINT DOES SHOW A FEW FLAWS HERE AND THERE, NOTHING TOO CRAZY. EXHAUST
SOUNDS HEALTHY; GUAGES WORK EXCEPT FOR SPEEDOMETER. TACHOMETER WORKS
INTERMITTENTLY. LIGHTS ALL WORK. TO SUM THIS CAR UP, I BELIEVE IT IS
TRULY ONE OF A KIND. IT IS LONGER AND WIDER THAN A FORD COBRA REPLICA.
IN MY OPINION, THIS IS A GREAT SUMMER CAR TO CRUISE AROUND IN FOR REALLY
NOT A LOT OF MONEY. I REMIND YOU, THIS OLDER TECHNOLOGY WILL REQUIRE
MAINTENANCE AND TWEEKING. DON'T EXPECT TO HAVE A MAINTENANCE FREE "NEW
CAR" EXPERIENCE ...AND WORKING ON THESE OLD CLASICS IS HALF THE FUN.
THANKS FOR LOOKING! IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR WOULD LIKE A MORE
IN-DEPTH DESCRIPTION PLEASE CALL ME, EARL
I CAN BE REACHED AT AREA CODE
