Hello everyone , im jon and proud to be the new owner of the black midas 1380 that appeared on ebay, landed on the wednesday and by the friday it was in bits ready for full front end overhaul as the ring gear was shot and it looks like it had been wired by stevie wonder in The dark with his finger end filed off, hopefully It will be back on the road shortly!

Thankyou for having me here, from what i can gather its very similar to the minis ( currently own 38 minis of various types) should be fairly simple to rebuild to a good standard, the bug has bitten tho, owned it less than a week and searching for another!
