  • Everybody is ready for school a little early today
  • I'm not sure if it's possible for the kids to leave each other alone
  • Or if Mr Awesome can be quiet, ever
  • Eggs and bacon with coffee for breakfast, old school style
  • Time to get the big kid over to the bus stop

Have fun out there!

Made the arrangements just a few minutes ago to have my very first car I ever owned shipped to me.

1975 MG Midget 50th Anniversary edition

This is not a picture of mine, but it look exactly like mine does. I am going to get it spruced up and handed over to my niece for her to learn on. 100% mechanical. Not a single damn computer in it. And stick shift, as a proper person should learn on.



It has sat in one of my dad's garages since I was in high school.

funny thing about that car. The vehicle is so damn light when a semi going 60+ MPH pulled up behind you on the highway, the pressure wave in front of the semi would actually lift the vehicle up, sometime enough for you to lose some traction.

Should be fun, hope the rust isn't too bad! Any plans to backdate the front end to chrome bumpers?

vehicle was sheltered all this time, no rust really to speak of.. Even the soft top is in decent condition, but the plastic back window is definitely yellowed from the TX heat in the garage over the years.

Given it is an anniversary edition, I had always planned on keeping it as close to original spec as possible, although that may need to change with the niece.

One neat thing will be that the vehicle ALWAYS suffered vapor lock in the hot Texas weather, even after we installed an electric fuel pump.

It will run like a charm in the cooler PNW weather.

My brother lives up in the flood plain in Snohomish County, so my niece will not have to deal with the hills like we have in Seattle proper. She is going to love that car.

Yeah she'll be alright then unless she decides to take it out in the snow. I forgot about all the hills in the actual city, any of the east-west streets that crossed the numbered ones were terrible. I had to use the handbrake while getting a start on those.

MGs like that were still around but uncommon when I was in high school and I can't remember any friends having problems out of the ordinary for a car that was 20 years old. Or wrecking them for that matter, they were all the type that would keep their cars running on their own rather than go to the shop.

Day 22 (or is it 23?) in the books with no power. They did stand up new utility poles on my property today though.

In the words of the crew chief, tomorrow they will "attempt" to light me up.
