The MGB didn't need much work, but the Midget required a completely new fuel system and I'm waiting on a new thermostat to try to get in front of an overheating problem. I'm also going to have to replace a few spokes on the wire wheels, and possibly put a new splined hub on it.
I had a 64 Midget. First year for disk brakes and roll up windows. it was a hoot to drive. I'd love another, but don't think neither Mrs. C nor I could get in, or out, of one anymore

Don't forget to get yourself a jar of Lucas Replacement Electrical Smoke, you'll probably need it.
