Sharp example of the last year Midget convertible! New paint in
2019, new tires, new battery, new master cylinder, new valve cover
and gasket, and more. Runs and drives excellent! Summer will be
here before we know it, here is an inexpensive way to gain entry
into the wonderful world of classic car ownership! Reasonable
offers always considered. We can assist with financing/shipping|
and we sell world-wide! Faced with falling horsepower due to
emissions regulations, British Leyland fitted the final MG Midget
Mk IV with the 1493-cc Triumph Spitfire engine in 1975. The car was
simultaneously raised to reduce the likelihood of damage during a
crash, and the car gained huge rubber safety bumpers at both ends.
The bumpers added weight| and performance of the Mk IV is slightly
less than earlier versions of the car. U.S. cars were fitted with a
single Zenith carburetor and had a top speed around 80 mph. Even
though sticker prices had reached $4,150 in 1977 (nearly $1,500
higher than 5 years earlier), sales lingered on until 1979, when
the last Midget left the factory. Some cars went unsold that year
and were titled as 1980 models. The Mk IV closed the 20-year run
for the car. Good examples of Mk IV Midgets can still be found at
the back of garages in better neighborhoods where they were a
popular second car for sunny days, but time has not been kind to
those living on the streets. Finding bone stock rubber-bumper cars
is becoming increasingly difficult as many owners have opted to
rebuild their Midgets with chrome bumpers from earlier cars.

any kind, and all sales are final. We strongly encourage you to
