History of car and any work or modifications carried out: The Midget was bought in England and driven to Australia, then to the Sunshine Coast. ‘Where are you going in that Sonny?’ ‘ Cooktown’ ‘Not in that, I will sell you a 4WD’. This was in 1962. The Midget was laid up for 27 years before my partner bought this Midget, now in pieces (including 7 wheelie bins). 30 years later he said the MG is just my size so it was restored over 18 months and back on the road in 2019. It is very original.

We will feature here a Midget or Sprite of the Month so will need a supply of cars who’s owners are happy for them to appear along with a few details (200 to 300 words) of the car and some photos. We will then publish details for visitors to look at and admire! Previous Cars of the Month will be available to view so over time we should be able to feature every model from Frogeye to 1500. Digital Photos should be no more than 1MB and not less than 100KB in size each and will be resized as necessary before uploaded to the website. Photos can be scanned for upload if required by arrangement. Please scroll down to submit the details of your car for Car of the Month…
