Morris Minor Owners Club

There’s an analogy here to a blackadder episode about Dr Johnson’s dictionary. He finishes this work of art only to have suggested to him more words that he had not included!

Nice but not as original as the other one. I think those prices are exceptional , even so, the first one sold.

Nice lcv, the write up goes on a bit, I didn’t make it to the end

I think that’s acceptable, that end does tend to suffer more.

Whilst it saves the job of clutch shaft alignment, installation of the combined assembly will involve the extra work of dismantling the front radiator panel, with the inherent danger of the threaded trim fixings breaking off, if the front is not already off, think twice about disturbing it.

I’m not sure you’re right to say there is a blissful indifference to research, granted we’re not all compiling a data base, what would be the point of that, we’d all be logging the same details. The fact that folk have shown considerable interest in the offer to buy your book suggests there is suppo...

No mention of it in the known survivors list. Might be hiding somewhere of course!

There’s no joining piece with the plastic filler strip, so be sure the ends butt together tightly.

POMMReg has been setting one up. Seems pointless suggesting someone else starts one.

I hope we don’t have to apologise for voicing an opinion!

Maybe the later models are in more of a demand, Prices of all cars vary depending on what folk find appealing.

I think it worth getting sealant specific for windscreens, the string will need to be strong, preferably a cord about
3-4mm diameter, pull the cord slowly when installing screen to avoid tearing the rubber.

One thing I would say Russ, when the screen is in place is to make sure the filler strip is pushed well into the corners making sure the rubber is spread tight to the metal aperture. I put the rubber onto the screen first, then used the string method to get it in place. Good luck, it can be tricky a...

This thread is getting on for 8 years old, unfortunately bmc won’t be popping up any more.

Just a thought, If the gasket is made from a type of rubber, maybe the added sealant caused it to slide, resulting in the gasket being squeezed out.

Lots of insects in poo, not burning the poor sods!! Can think of a few ppl to burn.... REALLY sad day, as one of our Robin's died 😭😭😭 Yes, apparently we are losing many insects from pesticides, land clearance, and the like, not that it bothers the makers and participants of crap programmes like ‘ce...

Oh no please, I might not be around in the next 30years!

I’d view it as a bit over the top, for a road going Minor.

I think it inevitable that no matter when released there will be long lost vehicle numbers crop up from time to time, that have evaded inclusion. Similar to the thoughts of Russ, maybe this could be dealt with by updates or supplements.
