Happy Halloween: 1965 MG Midget


With all of the wars and chaos going on around the world, I almost missed Horrorod season this year!! What is a Horrorod, you might ask? As defined by Daily Turismo: Any customized vehicle that makes you want to huddle up in the fetal position and cry. Like an MG Midget with way too much power-to-crumplezone ratio. Find this 1965 MG Midget with Chevy Ecotec power offered for $17,750 in Beverly Hills, CA via craigslist.

AMAZING 1965 MG Midget Restomod offered from a private collection. It has a modern Chevy Ecotec drivetrain. 2.2 liter fuel injected 5 speed with LSD. Excellent quality build. Daily driver reliability and awesome performance. Outstanding gas mileage… 30 plus. car has triple the stock horsepower and a balanced upgraded chassis. Car is rust free aside from the obvious patina, which I love. Fabulous car. Trades of EQUAL or GREATER VALUE considered. Super cool fun car!!

The only real horror is in the asking price. Otherwise, it’s a cool build.
Coolcarcaine. trying too hard
The tiny stock unassisted and probably not dual circuit brake master cylinder next to an engine swap with minimum 4x the herspers of the stock engine terrifies me.
I really want to take it for a test drive anyway.
