Brilliant video as expected Andy. A great result although quite a lot of effort, especially with 4 or 5 wheels to do. I did a spray painting course earlier this year and a tip I got from that to save pennies was to use the etch primer for the first coat as this primer is more expensive than ordinary primer. Following coats can be sprayed with cheaper non etching primer. The all black wheels look great and if you want even more shiney (I love shiney) you can apply a few coats of clear too. Brilliant fun from you as always. I'm looking forward to the next video so keep up the fabby work. Jimmy. 🏴🤪
Another brilliant, and very informative video Andy. I've just bought myself an MG Midget. 1500cc, 1977. I was planning on doing exactly what you've done here, after I saw it on a facebook post awhile back, and now you've set it in stone. The rims look brilliant, though I might go for a Matte, or Satin finish. Mine is currently in for a Head gasket and a unleaded conversion. Might start making videos of my own, to record my journey (once she's back from the car doctors...). Need to do alittle work here and there, some you've already done videos on!
Hey Peter ! Congratulations on the purchase dude ! What sort of colour did you pop for? And heck yeah, start a channel mate. The more the merrier! Would love to see others progress!
How do you get bonnet up when the cable is not working. Been sitting for 32 yrs. 1973 RWA. Folks had a Bugg Eye Sprite when I was 15. Now I just found this 73 with no rust and all original to be my project as I just turn 80. Your Videos are Super. Stephen, Walla Walla, Washington USA
Looks awesome I love the black with chrome ring. Definitely doing the same for my mg. Awesome video loved the time laps of you shaking the paint can very funny. Ceep up the good work👍 five stars. P.s. have you read my email about your question and also I add more photos to the drive of my mg and mitsubishi.
Looks fab except I have the flat black originals with flat silver fleck on top of ribs & on my 76 mg midget special edition the wheels silver matches the "T" special edition strips on car sides
Sorry, Dave's right. Days of work, paint, aggravation. You got a toddler, trade her for a paint job. With an arm, a leg, and a toddler you should only have to dig for a few quid. And relax.
Andy could you do a Video showing step by step timing setting. It’s awkward on our Mk3s from underneath. I’m sure Dave, you remember Dave can help out.
Let's face it. Dave is a typical old man who pretends he has no money but is actually sitting on a feckin huge pension as was wise enough to know what to do with money to make it more money. Hents why he would of had them done properly 🤣

@@AndysMGAdventures pretty much the same colour as yours, maybe a very slightly more creamish..?
@@peterlegg7531 either way... the best colour haha !
@@AndysMGAdventures It's not a bad one, that's for sure! Do love a British racing green though!
I wanted mine Lambo orange haha
Thanks very much for this video. I've just bought a 1500 and this is one of the upcoming jobs!
Nice work Miles! It's not as daunting as you would have thought !
Great humorous informative video as always. An inspiration to get cracking on the 5 I have waiting! Cheers.
Do it son! Well worth the effort

Good morning Andy.
They look good. Where did you get your tyres from, I’m going to need some before for she goes for her MOT.
Thanks Rob
I bought mine from black circles I think. Or mytyres.co.uk ... cheap but good etc
Check out Demon Tweeks - they sometimes have offers on RainExperts and were the cheapest I could find them a year or two back
banger job as usual andy!
Hahaha thanks banana guard
Looking good. Fits with Margot's paint color too.
You got it !
A job well done. They look new and appropriate with Margot
Yeah I'm over the moon! Nice one !

Sounds like a beaut !

Damn Mike. You're right. I'll just explain that to the wife.
Another great video Andy.
