To meet US federal regulations, the Midget had large black plastic bumpers front and rear and the ride heights were increased. The A-Series engine was replaced by the 1493 cc unit from the Triumph Spitfire, with a modified Morris Marina gearbox. BHP ratings were similar ,65 for the home market, the 1493 cc engine produced more torque. The increased output combined with taller gear ratios resulted in faster acceleration, and top speed of just over 100 mph. The round rear-wheel arches were now square again, to increase the body strength. The last car was made on 7 December 1979, after 73,899 had been made. The last 500 home-market cars were painted black.
This car has not been on the road for a considerable amount of time, and requires some restoration. It is said to start, drive and stop. The body is said to be clean, and a new screen and exhaust has been fitted.
