1978 MG Midget

Excellent Running and Driving Condition! Car had an Advanced Amatuer Restoration. The Car has a few Cosmetic Flaws but that does not hurt the drivability and reliability. Car is a Great Driver Car. I Drive the Car on a Regular Basis.

• 1500cc Engine and 4 Speed Manual Transmission

• Previous owner had both overhauled

• Less than 1,000 Miles since the overhaul on both

• Recently Tuned up by an MG Dealer a few Towns Away

• New Plugs

Paint: I would Rate 7/10

• The Car is a Driver so it has nicks and chips

• Paint has been touched up in a few small places

• A good Wet Sand and Buff Would Make it Gleam!

Just to be Completely Honest…

• Speedometer doesn’t work correctly, needle just started bouncing around about 2 weeks ago.

• Previous owner bypassed the water choke mechanism so you need to let the car idle for a few minutes before you drive it. Car has Never had a Problem Starting Without the Choke
