Salemanship at its best

Mine is a '76. Do you think what he describes was an optional feature? I think even my wife would be happy to have someone cook. Wonder where I could get it....

Maybe it was one of those 'specials' we hear about.
:confuse:
 
haha, it almost makes me want to buy it but I guess it's best to leave for some bachelor who needs it more than I . :smile:
 
He must have some hard up women in his neck of the woods :wink:
I have been driving these cars since 1972 and all I get every now and then is "Can I have a ride?" I tell those young girls to go get their mother! :smile:
 
This car is a total chick magnet. Driving this car is like walking through the park with a new puppy or someone else’s baby. That is why i have to get rid of it. Every time I drive this car women get in line to follow me home. Not only do they follow me home many stay and offer to clean my house and do my laundry. Many have offered to have a baby for me and I cannot even begin to tell you how many meals are left on my door step. My wife is getting mad. Not only does this car have the chick magnet feature, it also has given me the ability to see the future and the power of invisibility. Before owning this car I was just a regular Joe who was down on his luck. Now I have it all! a sweet job that pays a ton, a sexy woman that promises not to leave me if I sell the MG, and too many kids to count! This 1976 MG midget is the sweetest thing since sliced bread. She has a butt load of new parts and runs like chickens from a fox. If you are ready to change your life give me a call...

What a great add, gota give credit where credit is due.
 
But you know, he's not too far off....I drove a 77 Midget and got almost that much attention everywhere I went. Children pointed and smiled and EVERYONE seemed to have a story to share. Man, I miss that car :frown:
 
When I had my '71 Midget running I once had about
about a half dozen young teenagers in a schoolbus
next to me at a stop light actually hanging out
the windows asking all kind of questions about the car.
Just too cool of cars and too few on the road.
 
I just started a topic on this then saw it was already here and deleted it, funny ad, my hometown, but don't know the car or the owner, but willing to call and inspect (I have owned a few Spridgets) if someone from far away is actually interested in the little beast.

I get a ton of attention in my '74 Midget. I've had girls whistle at me and ask me about the car, I had a couple of tough lookin' dudes in a car call me "homey" and say it was a "sweet ride", I had a banker guy follow me into a parking lot and ask me about it, a gay hairdresser talk me up to see if I wanted to sell it, a girl with spiked hair call out at the intersection that it was a sweet car, and a totally scruffy dude in his totally scruffy van tell me it as a "bad ass car".

Then there's the people who either had one when they were a kid, or their dad had one. And kids now like it too - think it's cute.

So yea when the time comes to sell my car I'm gonna write an add like that :smile:
 
Great, ain't it? Never got the attention from onlookers (especially women) driving my GT6 as I did in the Midget.

We all love attention, no? :yesnod:
