Looks like an MG MIdget. They sold them here in the 1970's.

Its an MGB, or maybe an MGC...definitely one of the two...
the Midget is much smaller, and has a different front...
Judging by the wheels, i'd say it's one of the last models before the rubber bumpers were introduced (i think in the late seventies)...
It actually does have identification on the boot, right above the MG sign...i can't figure out what it says by these pics....

This car is pretty famous, since its like the most popular classic roadster in the world or something like that..in fact, the mazda mx5 was deeply inspired on this car (that is why it has no hardtop)...
i'll try and find out what it is for sure, but definitely its not a midget

thanks mers!

it reminds me of an ancient miata.... i should go back and check
what it says near the badge on back...thanks! :D
