UP FOR NO RESERVE AUCTION IS MY 1973 MG MIDGET. I AM TOLD THAT THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR WITH A WIDE ARCH WHEEL OPENING IN THE REAR. I PURCHASE THIS CAR WITH THE INTENT TO TURN IT INTO A DAILY DRIVER. I DISASSEMBLED THE CAR AND PAINTED IT ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO AND PUT IT BACK TOGETHER. I HAVE ONLY DRIVEN IT FOR 126 MILES SINCE THEN BECAUSE I DONT HAVE TIME TO ENJOY IT. THE WHOLE TIME IVE OWNED IT HAS BEEN KEPT INSIDE MY BODY SHOP AND GETTING THINGS PLACED ON IT.
UNDER THE HOOD IS ALL ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE WIRING HARNESS REPLACED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER. THE TWIN SU CARBS AND POINTS DISTRIBUTOR ARE STILL THERE.
ILL BE HONEST, THIS CAR WOULD BENEFIT TREMENDOUSLY FROM A CARTER CARB CONVERSION BECAUSE I CANT SEEM TO GET THEM TO ADJUST PROPERLY.IM SURE IT WOULD RUN EVEN BETTER IF THE POINTS DISTRIBUTOR WAS CHANGED TO ELECTRONIC ALSO.
YOU CAN FIND THE CARB CONVERSION KIT AND THE DISTRIBUTOR ON MOSS MOTORS WEBSITE.
THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES BUT NOT TO SMOOTH FROM THE CARBS.
CAR HAS WIRE WHEELS AND NEW TIRES AND TUBES
INTERIOR IS ALL ORIGINAL. SEATS ARE OK BUT DASH PAD HAS CRACKS.
I HAVE THE CHROME BUMPERS FOR THE CAR BUT I WAS GOING TO LEAVE THEM OFF FOR A MORE SPORTS CAR LOOK. THEY ARE INCLUDED WITH THE CAR.
AGAIN --- I HAVE THE CHROME BUMPERS.......
SINCE OWNING IVE DONE THE FOLLOWING:
NEW PAINT
NEW PLUGS
CARBS REBUILT BUT NOT ADJUSTED
NEW CONVERTIBLE TOP FROM MOSS MOTORS
NEW WEATHERSTRIPS ON TRUNK AND TOP AND DOOR WINDOWS
NEW WINDSHEILD GASKET
NEW ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP
NEW TIRES AND TUBES
BRAKES, SOME SUSPENSION, AND EXHAUST WERE DONE JUST BEFORE I PURCHASED CAR.

HORNS
FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS REPACKED
