Hey Listers:

I recently came by a white rubber bumpered MG Midget that is FREE for the
taking!!  Here are the details:

Car apparently taken down for head work (10 years ago).  Head taken to a
machine shop...repairs are too expensive.  Replacement head sought, but
none available in kid's price range.  Eventually kid loses interest in the
car, leaves it parked in sister's back yard.  Feats of nature take over,
soft top destroyed, interior becomes so-so.

I saw the car a week ago, all body panels look pretty straight; saw no
signs of Mr. Tin Worm activity.  The engine has rat nests all over, yuuch!
Flat tyres, seats torn, all instruments there.  Could be roadworthy if you
REALLY like rb midgets, I guess.

The car is located in a little town called Durham, CA, which is ten miles
away from Chico, CA (between Sacramento and Redding, CA).  The woman tells
me she has all the paperwork for the car and her brother will be happy just
to get rid of it.  

If anyone has interest in the car, please e-mail me privately.  I don't
have the telephone number and street address yet where the car is located,
but will have that by next week.

The woman has no knowledge of the car and doesn't want to have spend money
on long distance calls to get rid of a free car...hope you guys understand!
Cheers,
Jim Boyd
