Morris Minor Owners Club

Is there much interest in installing Riley brakes on Morris Minors any more? I collected good 9” drums and shoes with new brake pipes, wheel cylinders, springs and snail adjusters that were destined for wifey’s 1275 MM saloon. This was sold in favour of a late Fiesta so she could visit our Grandson more often (450 round trip).

Would it be better £ wise to sell as a job lot or individual parts? £’s needed to reinvest in our convertible. Thanks, John

I would advise to sell as a job lot.
There is still a lot of interest in the Riley 1.5 brakes especially from the historic racer fraternity as they are the correct period brake conversion.
I had them on the front of my comp Minor and they were very good the only down side was the un-sprung weight of the brake assys. Eventually the Riley 1.5 brakes were replaced by the Marina disc brake set up which overall was a few pounds lighter.
