1977 MG MIDGET 1500

HOW A CLASSIC BRITISH TWO-SEATER FOUND ITS HOME IN AMERICA

For as long as I can remember I yearned for a classic driving experience. One free of beeping gadgets, digital displays, artificial voices yapping directions and plastic overload. But most of all I wanted to feel Soul behind the wheel again.

I found it in my 1977 MG Midget.
