Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1976 MG Midget 1500 has been extensively restored over two years with a rebuilt engine, gearbox, new suspension, and a full respray. The car comes with extensive paperwork including receipts and photos of the work carried out, plus new Mini-Lite wheels and tires.
Condition
8
The car has undergone a comprehensive restoration over two years with many new parts, including a rebuilt engine and gearbox, new sills, suspension, clutch, and a full glass-out respray. While it drove 70 miles to the auction with good oil pressure, the vendor's reason for selling (wife's back injury) does not impact the car's condition itself. The description implies a high level of refurbishment, fitting an 'Excellent' rating.
