Im not an expert on Midgets (or much else frankly) but the rule is the
same as for Bs regarding RUST - it is the single most important point,
also i seem to recall that Midgets have a propensity for breaking rear
spring hangers which are hard to detect unless you actually drive the car
- im sure one of the midget mavens can fill you in.
Two thoughts of a general nature - 
1) at $800 dont expect too much  - unless the seller is totally out of
touch they are
     selling a parts car here and pitching it as a "project"
2) dont turn up with a trailer (or leave it round the corner) - the
seller will think
     youre really keen (which you obviously are) and you wont get the
best price
     Its all a poker game "well its not really what im looking for but at
$450 i couldnt
     let it stay here" - that sort of thing
