Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi, something that never really dawned on me until this afternoon at work (I doubt I'm the only one who's mind wanders). The heat shield screwed to underneath of the front passenger footwell - is this made of asbestos? I suppose back then (1956) anything that was to be heat resistant, asbestos would...

I wish more of the club stands would think carefully about why they were there. I'm afraid too many of them seemed like excuses for the club's inner circle to get together for a natter,and to hell with the paying punter. I'm afraid there was an element of that with the MMOC, even. Unfortunately, I ...

congrats!! I have a while before I can even think about MOT, but I cant wait for it!

Wow Dean, that is good news!

I thought they would be like "you have to buy it first". Might give that a try myself. Have the addresses of all previous owners in the original logbook.

Agree. Judging by the garage staff at my local Sainsbury's you might have failed to demonstrate an appropriate level of customer contempt.

it doesny look like a cheesegrater - easier to spot would have been the split screen, but doesnt look like it.

I live in Northumberland, so I'll keep an eye open - you never know.

i'm a bit of a purist so it's not for me, but that is pretty tidy job!

Nice one!

I'd be interested in this too!!

I'm in this area - were abouts you need it picking up from?

I cant believe that some people would pay 15k for a Minor!

I love them, but 15k? even if it was concourse, I still wouldnt pay 15k.

Arthur - it's an old car, and Arthur sounds like an old mans name.

My dad's previous were called Doris (trav) and Brian (saloon).

Not very attractive, but would a good old fashioined wheel-clamp prevent tow-away thefts?

would a filter on the suction line add too much resistance to the flow for the pump? I havent done this, but just curious.

so does this mean the club dont have an existing database for all types of minors?

How do all. Whenever I see people posting reg numbers to look for cars, it gets me thinking that there must be a better way of doing this, as someone is only going to reply if they happen to see your post, and to save trawling through the forums. Anyway, I was thinking about building a small web dat...

you git!

Am so jealous you're at the end of your restoration, you done a good job!

aaah, cheers nigel! Might have to pull mine a part to see whats knackered, and if its easy to fix. I also had a look at one of ray newells books "original morris minor" and i there, there is a S2 minor with the same speedo. Your trim looks the same as mine, so you belong in good company. I...

Nice work

hmmm, not exactly "power to the people"
