1971 mg midget

 I also currently own a 71' midget which i have removed the factory 1275cc engine and gearbox and in its place cut and welded to such a point that I installed a chevy 260ci inline six coupled with a two speed powerglide out of a 1963 bel air.Which was the first year for an alluminum tranny case and a rear pump so it can be push started  like a manual transmission.Seats are from a mid 90's F body Camero  after the factory seats went missing at some point this year.One of my biggest regrets of this car is choosing one that was in such poor condition but that is what pushed me to modify it since it wasnt really worthy of a restore.The rearend is from a 77 vega  which I found at U-pick-it  the width is alittle too wide but the lug pattern is the same as the Midgets so wheels will be able to be interchanged.
