My Midget is back...

[Oldman]

Everything from the windshield washer, windshield the entire inside, top's frame and top are new. New tail lights, backup lights.







Only thing that has not yet come in is the new boot for the top when it is down. Also I have to re-finish the knob on the stick shift to match the new steering wheel.

BTW it has one really nice sound system in it now. I cannot wait till next year when I finish it. But Momma gets a new kitchen first.

Thanks... one thing for sure when I take it out a lot of folks stop and talk with me.

Oh one of the thing we will do next year is to Supercharge it. In the image below the twin carburaters have been removed and the supercharger is on the right of the engine. This thing has a whole (LOL) 1275 cc engine. But she will move... been 105 mph more than one time. They tell me I will double the break horse power once I add the supercharger.


I will also add two roll bars and have it re-painted.

Beautiful!  I remember a buddy of mine in high school had one of those it was a blast to zip around in!  I also remember I barely fit into it, being 6' 5''   :)

The getting in is the easy part. It is the getting out without tearing off the windsheild that is tough. A friend of mine is 6'4" and when he goes to get out he lays out the door and pulls himself out with his hands.

Oldman that is an awesome looking machine!!!

Thank you!

Olds,

That is one sweet looking machine.  You do MG's, earthboxes, upside-down tomaters, etc.  Is there anything you can't do?   ;D

I'm glad you got it tho.  If I had something like that, I'd be dead within a week.........but what a sweet week it would be  ;)

That is one sweet clean looking ride Olds, but re-painted? Shoot I thought it was already!!!!

I agree, with the Mrs, need the new kitchen first.  ;)  They are joy as well.

Olds,
That is one sweet Midget.  Congratulations on getting it back.  It's fun to take them out and turn a few heads.  I have a 1936 Ford Phaeton street rod.

Nice ride Olds!

Cool car.  For some reason, I was expecting Red though.  My toys aren't quite that nice...'96 Dodge Ram, '81 Honda Goldwing, and a '93 Flatbed Trailer (20' long).

Nice lookin' ride Olds!

I like the "Smoke Generator" (the blower)

;D

Olds,
My ride can't compare to yours.  Supercharger?  Just 327 Chevy with Edelbrock manifold, Edelbrock 4 barrel carb and headers in a really heavy car in mine.  You would so smoke me but we would both have a good time cruising on a Sunday afternoon! ;D
