Morris Minor Owners Club

most wheelclamps easily removed with a set of stilsons,th kind your friendly plumber ,or unfriendly itinerant uses.beware. re,john Hi, I think the point is it's a deterrent. Most thieving scum will be looking for a quick steal and getaway, if they have to spend time getting past things, before they...

That car on gumtree is a real 'barn find' Richard. From a UK point of view it's in amazing condition, you are really lucky with that over there. I prefer your colour though, be it Mist or Porcelain green. I hope you decide to keep it when you respray the car, it really suits it. Though it doesn't l...

Hi, Not mine but I spotted it trawling eBay, thought others may be interested being it's NOS. So ideal for a restoration project, grab it before a dealer does and inflates the price. Best wishes, Mike. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/N-o-s-MORRIS-MINOR-MM-BONNET-SKIN-1st-type/303130888567?hash=item46940...

Got to be the same one I saw a few years ago in Frodsham

It does look like it. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me and I was driving anyway.
Best wishes,
Mike.

Hi, I went for a walk in the Peak District today (before we're all in lockdown again :roll: ) and spotted a very nice red Rover P2 (didn't realise they were available in that colour??) while heading out for my walk driving through Matlock, Derbyshire. This was closely followed by a Rose Taupe Minor...

I know the sporting triumph club have the regular round Britain tour it would be nice to have the Minor doing something as well. Seconded, back in the day Minors were noted for their reliability, so why not! Once Sally is back on the road I will happily enter her, if the club organises one. Perhaps...

Hi, I have fitted an E10 resistant rubber fuel line from the pump to the carb and replaced the rubber diaphragm in the fuel pump with an E10 resistant one from the States. However I didn't think about any 'O' rings in the carb set up itself, something I shall have to watch out for when Sally's runn...

I know you can never have too many, before anyone says it!

You've already answered you own question!
Best wishes,
Mike.

Hi, I use a combination of Dinitrol Converust and Isopon Zinc 182 primer (links below so people know what I'm referring to), along with waxoil / waxoil based underbody protection. They seem to work quite well (touching wood of course, as rust is the common enemy of us all), not perhaps as specialis...

Hi, I had a quick look on my break but can't find a windscreen surround corner repair section anywhere. I'm quite surprised someone doesn't make them, as it is a common rot spot. It looks like you will need to make up a repair section yourself, unless someone else on here knows a source and can pos...

Hi, I too have read and re-read this post and can see no justification for any overreaction, like cancelling your membership, for what has been said in it. At 53 I would have thought he would have developed a thicker skin by now........ C'est la vie..... Best wishes, Mike. PS: Perhaps he's a modern...

On the original post...it really saddens me to see historic vehicles have their engines ripped out and replaced with electric power plants. The sound, vibrations and smell from the a series unit is all part of the Minor’s special charm. An electric motor is a modification too far. At least I think ...

Indeed, bring back Benny Hill and Dick Emery and real humour! :D Stuff Political Correctness and all those who try to force it down our throats where the sun don't shine! All people need to be is polite and not racist (and not to play the racist / homophibic card every time someone says something t...

Here you go: https://www.sufuelpump.com/products/aub-6098-diaphragm I bought one of these Ethanol resistant diaphragms myself, well worth the investment. And Ethanol resistant fuel hose is also a good idea: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ethanol-Proof-Fuel-Hose-6mm-1-4-Per-Metre/281861292203?hash=item4...
