Answer
Hi Dan

From the chassis number GAN4-U-64500G I can tell you that this is an MG Midget made in 1967-68 for the North American Market.  Negative earth, 1275cc engine.  The batch started at 60460 and ended at 66225 so I would estimate that it was built sometime in December 1967, possibly later.

For a more detailed `birth certificate' you could contact the British Motor Industry Herritage Trust - http://www.heritage-motor-centre.co.uk/exhibitions/archive-services/

Unfortunately, there are no records of these cars after they were shipped to the USA.
