[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The final photos are now in from Jason at Sugar and Spice Photography of our 1980 MG Midget 1500. The shoot took place inside the newest barn within the Suffolk Plant Centre complex in Pettistree. Recently completed, the barn is currently empty and makes for an amazing indoor shoot especially with the white background behind the black car. Our […]
We picked a great day for our first indoor photo shoot (forgetting our 4am 1966 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 shoot as that was done in our workshops), it was pretty nippy but at least it was dry. Our shoot took place early morning inside the newly built barn within the Suffolk Plant Centre complex in […]
Our 1980 MG Midget is now complete and with the photo shoot arranged for Friday 26th January we took a trip to Shine Supply UK for the full and final detail. They are currently in the process of renovating their new premises but were good enough to fit in our car.
We were out bright and early this morning with our 1980 MG Midget as we delivered her to Shine Supply UK for the full and final detail. Being a 14000 mile car and working within our impeccably clean workshops the guys have a good base to work on as she is very clean and tidy as […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The MG project is now complete and ready to find a new home. Before she goes too far she’s booked in for a full detail before the Bridge Classic Cars photo shoot. Someone will soon own one of the best, low mileage MG’s on the road today. Watch this space as this could be a […]
With a very minor tear in the vinyl roof we decided to replace the entire hood for new but this time we upgraded the material to Mohair. As this is a rarer option on the MG Midget we arranged for hood specialists Don Trimming to manufacture the hood. Here we are mid way through the […]
The underside of our 1980 MG Midget bonnet was in need of a little tidying up. Although in generally good condition once the layer of dirt and dust was removed we felt it could benefit from being re-sprayed. With the engine gleaming under our workshop lights it’s nice to have the bonnet above looking just […]
Whilst the car is away at the paint shop and with the engine removed we are able to tidy up the areas that are less reachable when inside the car. It’s a great opportunity for us to clean and repaint the engine and gearbox to freshen up the look.
So we’ve had a visit from Tony at Wyatt Polishing and being a Midget man himself he had a little inkling that our MG Midget might be of historical value. Not only is she a 14,000 mile, one family owned car from new which makes for fantastic history itself but the colour may hide more of […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Although the car has only covered a mere 1400 miles from new due to the extreme weather conditions in the north of Scotland we felt the paintwork did not reflect how beautiful our MG could be. We have decided to strip her back to bare for a sympathetic restoration and to have her resprayed to […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It was a late finish today for Craig as he stayed back to welcome in our newest addition to the Bridge Classic Cars, our 1980 MG Midget 1500.

Arriving in our workshops next month we have our 1980 MG Midget 1500. Previously residing in Edinburgh she’s had just 2 owner’s and covered an impressive 14000 miles from new.
