Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1965 MG Midget Mk II features a modified 1,310cc engine and a rebuilt 4-speed transmission, with recent attention to clutch and brake hydraulics. It presents with several noted cosmetic flaws including bubbling paint, quarter panel damage, and interior issues, alongside mechanical concerns like a weak generator and leaking wheel cylinder.
Condition
4
The car has several cosmetic and mechanical issues. The seller notes bubbling paint behind wheel openings and front bumper, damage to the lower-rear quarter panel, scratches and dings. Mechanically, the generator provides only 1/2 volt, the left-rear wheel cylinder leaks, the fuel gauge reads incorrectly, and a couple of soft top snaps do not reach. The tonneau cover has a tear and its zipper does not work. These issues require reconditioning.
