Thanks for the feedback, It’s currently still In that state as the pictures show but under a cover on the drive, I have taken off the complete rear suspension and am currently doing a full rebuild off it.

Hi, The NMP plate is in the engine bay, on the floor near the front on the passenger side, not on the engine, as per image below. Best wishes, Mike.

Could Ideally do with a picture with my registration or part of It to prove.

Thanks Anyway

Had a call from Cherstey Morris Minors today to say the welding now all done, so now need to work out which Police colour to spray It.
