Hi all,
I am fairly new to rotary's and look forward to being educated through your forum threads.
My newly acquired car is a 1970 MG Midget with a 13b EP, 48 Weber and RX7 5 speed. It has a Ford Cortina dif and shortened axles. Goes well, however as I am a tinkerer, I am always looking for things to fiddle with and improve on.

I think I have seen your car at Morwell hill climb track when it first opened (new track). I am in Bairnsdale btw. If you are not that bloke/car then welcome anyway

Hi Rice Racer,
Thanks for the pics, however that is not my car. Looks like an early Sprite in far better condition than my Midget. Very nice and tidy set up, I wonder where this car currently resides. My Midget also has full Victorian registration (Engineered) which is a bonus.
Thank you for the welcome and pics. Malcolm

Rice Racer, btw I am in Portland VIc.
All, I will post some pictures soon, however in it's current state, has had more hits than the Beatles. Perhaps one day will look similar to this Sprite??? - Heres hoping!
