1975 MG Midget Turbo
Added on Sept. 30 by MGaholic

This is a 1975 MG Midget. It was titles in 1976. I got the car for free if I could remove it before the end of the 4th of July weekend or the city was going to start fining the guy for an abandoned car. I had the needed body part in my personal inventory. Gutted the car and stated to teach myself how to weld. I decided on the Ford 2.3 Turbo engine. Cause I have been hooked on turbos since my 86 Saab 900S Turbo. I just got it running last month after 3 long years.

MGaholic:: It ran great for two days. Front wheel even came off the ground at launch, but the head gasket would not hold together. OH well close enough time for a winter project…LOL
