Really Impressive narration while driving! Normally on reviews I record that separately and ad the narration in post. However, I do pretty good at talking during my repair videos.
Enjoyed your video. I would have liked a tour while parked around everything, but your passion and knowledge makes up for it. It made me want one. Saw another guy who loved it too. His was the cargo van version with automatic. He was impressed with the performance even with the automatic. Power to weight ratio is everything.
If you drive it hard it won't get 50mpg. But you'll still go more miles on a gallon of gas than a Harley motorcycle. I've read that experienced patient drivers can get 70mpg on smooth level terrain if you keep top speed under 50mph. Driving habits and weight of passenger and cargo will obviously affect that as well.
We have no idea, as we have never driven in the snow in a Midget II. Narrow tires are a positive. No weight in the rear a big negative. In general, 25+ year old collector vehicles are poor choices for snow fun, because they'll rust away.
@@CollectorCarGuru Thank You...Considering snow has a place when choosing which vehicle to buy for So. Dakota...The fact this car is only 2WD was a definite negative
There are plenty of 4wd KEI cars. Most interest for Kei Cars are urban and fair weather use. But there are hearty Japanese made 4WD Kei Cars. I would recommend full rust proofing upon delivery in a summer month.

Good job Sam, that is a wacky and cool car/truck.
Do you think you can do a video over the engine and maintenance? I have one at my job we are trying to fix up
Gotcha already! Timing belt process on Class Winners Workshop: th-cam.com/video/88qtrWYWV8w/w-d-xo.html
@12:09 yes, yes it is
we die like silly men. but we die having a good time
What’s the mpg for one of those things? If it gets less than 50, I’d be severely disappointed.

Where do you find this thing I want to get one hehe
It is for sale right now at www.classwinners.com
Is it 4x4?
absolute weapon
Does the 1999 Auto 2 Seater Model with Power Steering
Kei Cars don't need power steering. They are light cars. Feeling the road is part of the enjoyment.
How tall are you? will a 6'2" ~325lbs linebacker fit?
As it mentions in the video -- Sam is 6'4" 235lb. At 325, you will probably be too thick in the chest to fit.
@@CollectorCarGuruLOL!! You were too kind. It's probably a spare tire shape at 325.
How well does the 2WD handle snow?
