1972 MG Midget

Tifosi J.E.M. Midget

The only Jacobs Midget replica built by Hall’s Garage of Lincolnshire. One for the MG fanatic and press featured.

This is a unique opportunity to purchase the prototype replication of the Jacobs Midget and the result of 18 months of design and development completed in 2018.

Based on Dick Jacobs’ racing Midget Coupe of which 3 cars were built for racing - this J.E.M. (Jacobs Evolution Midget) was built by Hall’s Garage of Lincolnshire to bring to life again the unique styling of the car. This new version includes modern features to create a more usable car on today’s roads including wind-up windows, locking doors and a luxurious interior.

This J.E.M. is built on a 1969 square arch, half elliptic sprung midget shell using fibreglass moulds to replicate the styling of the originals including the front end and of course the coupe roof.

Finished in Nightfire red with a red interior, the car is truly breathtaking to look at and is certain to raise attention wherever it may go.

The specification includes the following:

1275cc engine on a twin-choke Weber

4 speed gearbox

Rebuilt brakes, new callipers, wheel cylinders, brake shoes

Mini fin rear brake drums

Rebuilt lever arm shock absorbers with adjustable rears

New lights and wiring loom

New knock on wire wheels and tyres

The J.E.M. has been featured on the front page of MG Enthusiast and Kit Car Magazine in 2018 after completion.

This is not one to be missed and a visit to our Southwell showroom is certainly recommended.
