I'm new to MG ownership - finally a long time dream comes true!
I am now the proud owner of a little yellow '79 MG Midget. It seems to run
fine, mostly,
but of course there will always be some problems to fix, both short-term and
longer.
My initial investment included $1000 for the car (hey, it RUNS fine), and
about $325 for
a new top (already almost installed). I have purchased as supporting
documentation:
Haynes Repair Manual (already here)
Owner's Manual Reprint (coming)
Factory Workshop Manual Reprint (coming $45 - ouch)
Lucas Fault Diagnosis Manual (coming)
all from Moss Motors
BUT
after an exhaustive (and exhausting) local and regional search,
I have not been able to find any more documentation.
My Question - Any (been there done that) recommendations on the following??
Guide to Purchase & DIY Restoration (Lindsay Porter) - $36 (ouch)
Step By Step Guide to MG Midget Service - $37 (ouch)
MGB & Midget Restoration (Jim Tyler) - $44 (extra ouch)
I do not want to waste money buying all 3 unless there is a good reason...
I also do not want to spend money on the wrong thing...
If I could browse these 3, I would know right away which to buy, BUT
they do not exist locally - only in the MM Catalog.
Any clues for a beginner? Thanks much, JL
