Description

I am believed to be only the sixth owner of this historic MG Midget the previous owner having it for 59 years. Built in December 1931 and registered WV 771 on 4 February 1932 according to the old buff log book. The car had a full body off rebuild in the 1970s and in the 1990s the engine was fully rebuilt and upgraded again including Phoenix crank, rods, valves, rockers etc., Bayton-Jones cam. Recent further upgrades include a new radiator and grill, modern oil filtration and other extensive work.
Four speed box, indicators, full weather hood and tonneau complete this splendid car which is in good condition with a degree of patina to reflect its age and history.
Full receipts and detailed records, photos and books. Also a spare engine, gearbox, cylinder head, diff etc. too extensive to detail all included in price.
Car registered with the VSCC with a current Buff Form
