**************************************************************
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
