Morris Minor Owners Club

I had the same problem with a road wheel and tyre which sold for the princely sum of 99p. After three months I wrote to the buyer saying that I was going to dispose of the item a month later. I offered a refund, less eBay charges but he still didn't reply. I recommend that you contact him through th...

Hi John - could you post details of the car restoration course where you learned the basics please? I've never had a lesson in my life and my first attempts have been a bit rough!

Get back down there and check BMC, you can sell at least two of them on this thread

Mine has a copper washer rather than a gasket.

If the ANPR fails to pick out the number a human can usually read it off the photo. Mind 'ow you go sir!

Paying for diagnostic tests is a real con. For my Nissan you turn the radio off, press the info button and turn the radio volume knob 30 clicks. At a garage, that will be £25 sir ...

Some well thought out points, I like the idea of a voting slip to find out the 'people's favourite'. I went to the national for the first time last year and had a great day out with the family. I like your youtube videos of other events, but the main improvement appears to be the backing tracks beca...

Three lions and a bull on my shirt

I've just tried it. You need to include hidden files. Mine is in:

C:\Documents and Settings\MYNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{LOT-OF-CODE-NUMBERS}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

Try running a file search for a file named "Inbox.dbx" and then have a look in the folder that contains it for any other dbx files.

Welcome to the forum! As far as I know, they were all painted matt black in the factory. You could upgrade it with a piece of old carpet, as a lot of owners did at the time

I like it. How much would they charge to get the steering wheel moved over?

Thanks for the pictures and well done on your restoration! Can you tell me more about your "triangle" please?
What sort of castor wheels have you used, and how did you tip the car up?

Check that the petrol gauge sender has a gasket and is screwed tight. It is a circle about 4 inches diameter on the top of the tank. Mine leaked the first time I filled up. Use a brass screwdriver to avoid sparks!!

Where do you buy parrafin? I used to see it at petrol stations, but I don't think they stock it now. B&Q maybe?

Great pics Kevin, worth a thousand words. My spare is not a mini or a minor then. I'm going to put it in the garage for 30 years and hope it increases in value

thanks

Hi bmc - are you saying that the mini has the same shape bottom hose, only smaller than the minor?

I've bought a secondhand bottom hose with a heater take-off tube. It is for spare, there is nothing wrong with the old one. When I offer it up next to the old one it looks about two inches shorter in the horizontal direction. Do they come in different sizes for different age minors? I'm probably goi...

Hi Arthur
Good luck with your project. Can you tell us which part of the country you are in, and how much of the work you and your grandson could do yourselves?
