"The previous owner was a well-known local rally driver with extensive knowledge and a dream workshop, having invested hundreds of hours into the renovation. The car comes with a lifetime free inspection/MOT. The current owner purchased it last year but hasn’t had the time to enjoy it due to work and family commitments. A new exhaust manifold has just been replaced, and the car runs and drives fine."

Description

The car was imported to Sweden in 1990, likely from the USA, and has had five owners in Sweden. Previous owner acquired it in 2017, and it was originally blue. Like many older Midgets, it had rust issues, making a complete renovation the best choice. The car was fully repainted and all rust problems were addressed or replaced (see photos). The engine and gearbox were thoroughly inspected, with worn parts replaced, including the brakes, electrics, and carburetors.

The renovation was completed in 2020, featuring a new interior and a fresh coat of British Racing Green. The car is now inspected/MOT for life.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    The engine has been fully renovated, and all mechanical components have been reviewed. It starts easily and runs and drives well. Only minor tasks remain: installing the windscreen washer on the bonnet and fitting pop studs for the roof. The roof is in good condition with a small rip, and the roof frame is included but not yet installed (see pictures). The car also has nice wheels and good tires.

  • Interior condition

    Interior is very nice, featuring newer seats, door cards, carpets, and black trim. However, a mouse has chewed the corner side trim near the footwell and the rear panel (see photos).

  • Exterior condition

    The bodywork has been renovated, with no rust issues or damage, and features clean, well-maintained chrome bumpers and detailing. It has been completely repainted in British Racing Green to a good standard in the owner's garage, though a some small paint flaws are present. The car also has specially painted steel wheels with good tires.

  • General condition

    This is a really nice driver’s car with many hours of renovation work completed. Some minor tasks remain, particularly if you plan to install the roof.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. 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.
