Interesting subject Ryan. Do you know if the 79 Midget has an overdrive? If not then it would be a noisy, buzzy cruiser at sixty miles an hour on the highway. If I remember right my 1979 MGB had an overdrive and so did my 1958 Triumph TR3A. Both were comfortable cruisers and were quiet with low rpm.

It is not surprising that there is little demand for old MG's. The Miata N series seemed to take over where the British sports cars left off. The Miata reliability is amazing and there are many 1990 NA's still on the road.

In Edmonton in the summer a British car show is held. There is really good attendance with different car makes. Typically many MG's, Triumphs, Jaguars, Land Rovers, Austin Minis and Lotus.

Cheers, Guy.
