1974 MG MIDGET CONVERTIBLE WITH THE RARE KAMEI HARDTOP....First of all i want to make it clear i live in new haven Connecticut and they will not and do not issue title for antiques older than 1981 so this is sold bill of sale only i bought this car before i got sick 2+ years ago yes i won a battle with cancer but it put this project on the back burner and i no longer have the desire to finish it ..HERE IS SOME HISTORY ON THIS PROJECT ..   I HAD a 1975 that ran like a new car but was in typical rusted to death condition ....drove it everywhere even to vermont .... loved that car but it was so bad i was actually cutting plywood out for floors..i pulled the engine and transmission the soft top steering column 5 wheels and tires door panels and a ton of other parts .i installed the 75 motor and trans in the 74 pictured   and never wired it or hooked anything up its bolted in although i remember it sitting a little high when i did it and never figured out why i think the motor mounts can be modified to drop it lower the hood will close and all but its an issue worth mentioning  ..  i found this 1974 it was in a garage for years  this car has a soft drivers floor and is easy to repair its all on the flat areas all the structures are sound as i can see .... its a pretty nice car but it does have bubbles here and there on the body not perfect but pretty solid it was painted years ago and never put back together ..... i have the original 1200cc block for the 74 if u need numbers matching along with boxes of other parts including a front to back stainless exhaust system imported from england ... it was easier and made more sense to install a motor and trans that i knew was good ....... the right front tire has a slow leak but will take air ....  the radiator  rear rack and tons of other parts are inside the car ... i have the soft top and frame from the 75 if you want a soft top as well for it .  the fabrics no good on the top .. everything im mentionong is included in the sale anything MG  i own you can have ......  this is a project, a worthwhile project or a great parts car for someone who has a nicer one that might need a drivetrain or  a hard  top .... i think its only a few weekends away from being a runner again ....  this has the 60's style bumpers and is the last mg built before they went to the rubber bumpers ..... you will need to tow it or flat bed it its in my front yard now i dont have a garage anymore .... has  nothing in the way so please have the means to come get it asap im tired of looking at this unfinished project  and want to grow some grass ..look at all the pictures please i tried to show the good the bad and the ugly the vin tag the drivers floor where there is a hole i even lifted out the seat to show the floor under the seat  the entire trunk is full of parts as well as the back seat  ...NOTE THERE WILL BE MANY MINOR DEFECTS AND UNFINISHED PARTS OF THIS CAR IT WAS PAINTED YEARS AGO AND THEY DIDNT EVEN PUT THE REAR LUGGAGE RACK BACK ON .....I HOPE SOMEONE ENJOYS THIS CAR AS MUCH AS I DID MY 1975 IT SURE WAS A LOT OF FUN ....
