Please take a look at the Midget in this post.... Ride

I found out this am the cars were $900 <span style="text-decoration: underline">a piece</span> but are now $750 each with offers being entertained. I'd really like to have to Midget for a total restoration project to pass on to my Grandson.

It has the usual midget rust in the sill areas but the rest of the body looks decent, and probably will need floor pans.

Engine looks complete, but don't know if it runs (I'd probably rebuild anyway).

If I can get a better price buying both I would part out the MG.

Thanks,
Bud
 
At $500 you could turn a profit by parting it out. SO I'd go to $600 max. Then disassemble it and assess if it is worth restoring or if you should just part it out.

BTW, my estimate is based on ebay prices and doesn't include your labor. But I find disassembling a car "fun and therapeutic". :smile:

If you have a tetnus shot! lol

FWIW...I would agree with Trevor.
 
Maybe offer $1,000 for both. Flip the B if possible to get cash for Midget project. I'd think I restore-able B of that vintage would go for at least $1500, that's a lot of Midget parts. But I don't watch the B market at all. If you couldn't get quick cash for the B whole, then start parting it out, but that's time better spent on the Midget, so I'd try hard to dump it whole.
