I totally forgot to post this – even though I have a Picasa & Flickr album up for the thing. I spent a week or so in early August home in Iowa working on the MG Midget with my brother. We got it SO CLOSE – almost close enough to bring back to Denver. But… when we were testing the brakes, the master cylinder popped it’s seals and *poof* no rear brakes. Front ones worked so we drove it around a bit, but it’s still in Iowa. Hoping to get the brakes done and bring it back here soon. Here are a few pics once we got it out of the driveway.
For those keeping score at home, we’ve made a lot of progress:
Complete:
- New Wheels & Tires
- Paint/Body Work Done
- Carpet installed
- Gas tank installed
- New seats installed
- Windshield installed
- Trunk carpet installed
- Lights rewired & finished
- New Dash Cover installed
Remaining to do:
- Finish Top (got part way done but were missing snaps, so had to stop)
- Finalize stereo install (part way done, but need a new center console)
- Fix Brakes (top on the list)
- Door panels (tricky with the windows/etc.)
- Tune Engine
That’s really it. So close, yet so far away (darn brakes). More to come when it’s complete!
