Hey DISers!
I need help! Anyone very good with identifying car models from either the late 60's or early 70's? I am working on a history website for my town in NJ, and I found a nice photo from I believe 1973, maybe 1974. Below is a cool car that is in the background of one of the photos, and it looks nothing like the other cars in the photos. We were wondering what make and model it could be, as it certainly wasn't a big gas guzzler like many early 70's cars! Here's the photo (sorry it's blurry!):
Looks like a small 2-seater convertible, with some odd coloring. Someone suggested an MG, but I am not sure at all since I know hardly anything about older cars! Anyone want to play detective? Any insight is very appreciated!! Thanks!

The car we had was an MGB or I think someone called it a "Midget" I'm no car expert but I thought it was funny that we had a car like that. It definantly looks British, maybe a Triumph?
