MG midget finally finshed

Share this page

I've found that the pre 66 seats give the most room. The BE seats are not as comfortable as the 62 to 66 seats however.
I'm 6 foot 1 and 200 lb's with long legs. The only thing my spridgets lack IMHO is air conditioning!! I guess if i could give up my trunk I could even fit that!

With a stock 948, I think the choice would be AC or driving, not both at the same time. :smile:
 
I'm the same size as Kurt. When I decided to save a '73 parts car by putting an old 948 in it, the only seats I could find around were an old set of tired '65 seats (the original '73 seats were trashed). Actually, the older seats in Red Rat aren't bad!

For a "Red Rat" that car looks pretty good Nial. Think it beat's Bill M's "Orange Crate"!:highly_amused:

I've always called those seats as being from a 66 but with the model overlaps in those years, who knows.
I've got a car with those and they are far better than the later seats IMHO. I prefer the model before those for giving more room but, I think those are easier on the butt.
I've tried them all!

Just looked at your pics. There is a serious amount of amazing work there! I love the way you closed in the back. And, your relocated reverse light adaptation is really worth sharing as I can imagineothers might make that mod. I however am interested in the adaptors to get the wheels to 4x100 - any pics? Were did you find them etc. etc. Awesome!
