Morris Minor Owners Club

Our local well-known steep hill Sutton Bank was recently closed for maintenance for a week. It struck me what a good opportunity for an occasional hill-climb day before it re-opened Pay per run, timing set-up, mandatory competition insurance etc, would be a hoot. Even has a large parking area at the...

My favourite Minor safety equipment was always the brick I carried in the boot in case I had to park on a steep hill.

I note that it has not won anything in recent years?

Due to the demise of my ginger bush I have now settled for the Mother-in-law's tongue. It's best kept indoors though.

Wind?

Alcohol...nitromethane...?

Since heart surgery I watch the ingredients. Quorn is good and versatile and has the added bonus of much increased flatulence. Makes one sound more like a Morris Minor on occasion.

Second gear dropping out on the overrun was the one I had

Ganja

It's had a replacement engine and bodyshell...Basically a ringer
Trigger's broom anyone?

Hoses off, core plugs out and blast the block waterways out. I once blew out a coreplug due to blockages. Once I'd blasted out all the silt, rust and gubbins the block it ran cooler for years. The sudden eruption is likely somewhat of a steamhammer effect

The lovely blue Minor hotrod is the Slaters' Cosworth 4x4. A lovely thing indeed.

The seller has no knob. Unfortunate.

This is what had, mounting position is ideal and quarter light does not create an issue.

Agreed, the window frame 'clip-on' style looks so much more period (and is more use in my experience)

Seabrooks ready salted have no equal

I also worked for the REME in the late 80s and remember the old 6x6 Scammells - wonderful beasts. We also had a 1951 Commer Tels Truck with just 3600 miles on it. It had done more miles on ships than its wheels

Cockerel

Nice one...
