Description

The car was imported to Sweden in 1990 probably from the USA and had 5 owners in Sweden. The current owner purchased the car in 2017, and it was originally blue. Like most older Midgets, it had rust issues, so a total renovation was the best option. It was completely repainted and all rust issues were repaired or replaced (see photos). The engine and gearbox have been thoroughly inspected and worn parts replaced, including the brakes, electrics, carburetors, and so on.
The renovation was completed in 2020 with a new interior and repainted in British racing green, and it is now inspected/MOT for life.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car is exciting to drive, with a great feeling in the engine, gearbox, and brakes. It also sounds great, thanks to a properly balanced carb and has super clean engine bay. Only minor tasks remain: installing the windscreen washer on the bonnet (older parts included) and installing pop studs for the roof. Roof is in good condition, and the roof frame is included but not installed.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is very nice, with newer seats, door cards, carpets, and black trim. A mouse chewed the corner side trim near the footwell and the rear panel (see photos).

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork is renovated with nice and clean chrome bumpers and detailing. its been totally repainted in British Racing Green to a good standard in the owners garage a few small paint flaws can be found. Special paint painted steels wheel with good tires.

  • General condition:

    Really nice driver cars with many hours of renovation work done with some minor jobs required, primarily if you intend to mount the roof.

For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
