Anybody know where I might find an old midget. Preferably somthing out of the 40s to 70s. I have my Slick, now I need somthing to put behind it. Really just thinking about doing some vintage racing. Hoping some of you folks know somebody that has one for sale.
Thanks,

That's cool jakdad. Good luck with your search and keep us posted. Have you tried Hemmings Motor News?

I'm not "in" that world, but I always suggest joining the appropriate club to find stuff like that. The guys who have one usually know where more are that they can't afford or don't have space for.
You know, like us with slicks. :wink:

JC,
Is that really the sort of Midgets y'all race in the great white? :hm:

I doubt that will ever replace Puck Whacking as a spectator sport endeavor, "eh. . .?"
