Today we take a trip over to the United Kingdom, in the shadow of Big Ben, and tear into a 1976 MG Midget that's been parked for 10 years or more. It's been sitting outside, covered by some rags of tarps and forgotten for years. We drag it out, look it over and dive into trying to get it started. Will it start? Is it junk? Tune in and find out!

"Grab the clutch"
"That's where the bees are coming out of"
"Well, do it quickly then"
That had me dying laughing, sounds like something my Dad would've said. I helped my Dad get his neglected 1973 Fiat Spider 124 on the road after he finaly decided to sell it many years ago. It's really funny seeing a man that was 6'4" cram into a car not meant for people over 5' 10"... He couldn't drive it with the top up, and the profanity he invented when he got smacked in the forehead with bugs was priceless.
The boy needs to man up, what can I say? 😂 See, that's what's fun about RUclips, bringing memories like that back for people while creating them with my kids. Hence the name of the channel. Thanks for watching man!
@@MyLegacyGarage No prob! I'd love to find one of these cars or a little Fiat if I had a shed to park it in or something. They're actually decently reliable if you can sort out what everyone else did wrong. 'Course it wouldn't be British if it wasn't pissing oil haha.
Patiently waiting 😁
It's a pretty good one we think. Hope ya like it!
I like the random oddball car videos!
"A few cobwebs and a couple of snakes" lol
At least there wasn't any mice! Lol
3 windshield wipers because some US law required a certain % of the window be wiped, and the two wipers weren't cutting it, so they added a third.
Fascinating! Never would have guessed that. Lol. Thanks for watching and the info!
I had a 76 MGB and we drove it until things started to rust. Eventually we arranged to send it to a specialist for restoration. It fell off that truck on the way to Rochester Mass. We sold the 75 Midget and bought a new truck. That was all in 1985-87
Wow bad luck falling off a truck. These cars bring next to nothing value wise around here. It's a shame because they r cool car. Thanks for watching!
Now that’s a car... I missed the premiere but watching now. Great video again. 👍👍👍
Glad ya liked it Roy! It was a fun one. Thanks for watching!

No worries man. Life happens I get it. Hope ya like it!
This one looks fun!
Not really. Nothing about it is easy. Even it's size is an issue cuz I have to bend in half to reach into the engine bay. 😂 Was at it again today and made some progress so stay tuned for the second installment!
you can use oatmeal or sand to soak any oil/grease spills
I like the cheap clay kitty litter. Lol. Thanks for watching!
Nice video to watch

He did a fine job keeping the cheese lovers out. Lol. Thanks for watching!
Yee Haw!!!
I feel like the Brits would be more like "Bravo old sport" 😂 Thanks for watching!
Why do you do this?
1. You are crazy.
2. You're glutton for punishment.
3. All of the above.
😂😂😂
All true! 😂 Thanks for watching!
1975 was first yearrubberbumpera
Nice. I don't know much about these but they are cool. Both still sitting around here too. Thanks for watching!
MG all the way
All the way to death row! 🤣
@@MyLegacyGarage well your definitely not wrong but good vid
@@DudesWithWrenches thanks!
Set the timing
Yeah the timing is all sorta outta wack. The massive oil leak shut us down before I got that far though. Lol
What's goin on Legacy
What's up man! Thanks for watching! Ain't a C10 but at least it's cool. Lol
I'm here
Thanks for coming by and checking it out!
Hey
Put the car in 4th gear and push the car. That will turn the engine.
Why do people suggest that? It never works. Just slides the tires. 🙄 Thanks for watching!
180 degrees off?
Yeah the timing was all jacked up. 🤣 Thanks for watching!
@@MyLegacyGarage It sounded like my friends TR4. A neighbor helped him get it timed and the neighbor turned the gear 180 degrees because he said it was wrong despite the car running earlier in the day. When I got involved it was popping just like the Midget.
@@davidapp3730 it's amazing what a difference proper timing makes for getting something to run. 🤣
Small car
I guess that's where the name came from lol
Yea lol
