There's a reasonable condition blue 72 body in a scrap yard about 1.5 miles
south of me. The engine and ribcase are available too though they have been
removed from the car. My little town is population 27,000 and I have seen
two other Midgets for sale in the past 2 years. They are out there. You
gotta look. You want info on the 72? Hit me off the list.
Cheers!!
Jim
