First glance of that picture I thought '80's & boxy' - lo and behold yes they actually made them until 2012 abroad!

barrett Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Watching the Weslake Cup at the Goodwood MM the other day has really revitalised my desire for a 1960s sports thingy based on A-series oily bits. Apparently though Midgets and Sprites are now worth proper money, to the extent I could probably buy something actually good (like an Olympic or similar) for what it might cost to build upa sporty Spridget. I'm still half-keeping an eye out though, and this horrid little heap looks like it would fit the bill perfectly https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1630839543966606/ Somebody has already but a disgusting bonnet on it, so it'll be a guilt-free decision to bin it and fit something better looking. It's 1970, but one could easily put early rear lamps/ interior bits on without too much hassle. This lot has appeared on ebay and I'm half tempted to buy it on spec and store it until I can actually afford the car, as it seems quite reasonable https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144509718300 + a bit of paint = All fantasy of course, but it's what's keeping me up at night at the moment Ghosty, chodweaver, 11001010 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got some surface stuff creeping in, the plastic must hide a multitude of sins. We've got more of an issue with the front doors rotting in at the hinges and in at the fuel filler neck area.

I do like this 1500 one: https://www.marktplaats.nl/v/auto-s/mg/m1831761585-mg-midget-1500-1976-nu-4000, which has a lot of positives (rostyles instead of wire wheels, rhd, good top), but is, at 4000 euros, still a project with rubber bumpers, poor paint, and some other niggles. The really cheap ones are usually neglected USA imports with tons of wob, several layers of bad repaints and sun damaged interiors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
