Morris Minor Owners Club

Nice period image. Sadly there is no record of TBJ 90F on the DVLA's database, so unless it's 'resting' somewhere............ Would have been nice to get them together in the same spot for a comparison picture of the site today. Of course if you are putting her back into police livery then another ...

missing Morris emblem from the glove box lid! Hi, Is any of these any good? Best wishes, Mike. https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjxnYWJ6arlAhVL8OAKHTfAANEQMwhTKAMwAw&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pinterest.dk%2Fpin%2F412501647109152216%2F&psig=AOvVaw2htyNMG5hsxVGFm...

Hi, I am in the process of going through my suspension, front and rear, refurbishing it / replacing all the bushes. Another club member has raised the issue of the longevity of the front tie bars, stating that they should ideally be replaced every couple of years, as they can fail, with rather nast...

No doubt another noise will come along soon to occupy my attention...…..something I just don't get in my Jazz :D Talking of which, I saw a TV program recently about the BMW Mini production line and the attention to detail to eliminate any and all cabin noise was almost beyond belief. Specialist noi...

Hi, This is an interesting read and I will now go and check that my diff oil is GL4, I have used it in previous Minors diffs without issue but no harm in checking. I was reading through the manuals section on lubricants the other day and that recommends SAE20/20W for the dampers, so this is what I ...

Hi, Did anyone ever get round to manufacturing stainless steel front and rear bumper blades for the Minor? I see they are available for the (classic) Mini and I seem to recall some discussion on this site about it a few years back but, sadly, I can't see any for sale, so I assume it never got off t...

Hi, The plain black will be the earth wire and needs to be connected. Green / White is right hand indicators. Green / Red is left hand indicators. Not sure about the green / black you mention though, looking at the wiring diagram in the workshop manual (section N page 29) this is code number 24 and...

Hi, To be honest I've seen allot worse. Are there more areas that are in poorer shape? The lip just below the bolt holes for the rear wings does suffer and some people eliminate it entirely to solve the problem. If you are bothered by the patches and want to replace it, the rear inner wings are ava...

albeit tenuously, keep the memory of those classics alive Very tenuously indeed.... The (BMW) Mini is more like a maxi on steroids and not healthier for it (the Clubman version falls into the plain ugly bracket) and the new Beatle looks more like a slug...... The new Fiat 500, in its smallest size ...

On second thoughts, considering what BMW have done to the Mini, perhaps it would be better if the memory of the Morris Minor is left alone..... Modern safety standards etc could possibly turn it into something completely different to what it was originally. Modern engineering would mean it would ha...

Hi, Doing something (rather than just reading about it) is sometimes the best way to learn about the way it was constructed. I had a spare rib case gearbox that I managed to crack the bellhousing on (in several places - don't ask - not my proudest moment)……... Anyway I have a few spare ones now but...

Tongue most definitely firmly in the cheek there jagnut!

Hi, Blimey, whenever I've been looking for spares in the past there has been loads of rear light units for the later cars for sale, now I can only find the one left hand unit below. Where have they all gone??? :o Try 'sparesman', Bryan Gostling (club spares), his email address is listed in the mag,...
