Morris Minor Owners Club

Nope Northern Ireland cars didn't need reregistered going to or from England.

That label was usually tied to the screw jack in the toolkit I think.

Excellent job, well done!

I found that even replacement of the seal and blocking off the inlet hole I couldn't get mine to hold for more than 30secs before returning. OK for the 1950s I suppose but not much good today. I decided to just remove the spring and allow it to be used manually.

Hi The series2 register is still up and running, usually I get the emails forwarded on but I guess modern technology and all has let us down again sorry , please do resend your info. As regards your question we have at least 2 4 doors in that time period recorded but could and probably are more out ...

Does look the business.

Hi there. You are right on all counts. Aphm would have been the original 803 cc engine but as you say yours has a 1098 fitted which looks like it might be a silver seal engine. The radiator is also a later one. Looks like a good project. Your grill and wheels would have been body colour and the heat...

I was lucky enough to get hold of another damaged dynamo and was able to use the armature from that. They do appear online for sale quite often. Just ensure you get the same type as you already have.

Looking well. Little details that bring a smile to your face

Yes always, all interesting stuff

D for Deluxe, S for standard
Paint finish would have been recorded as you say in the chassis number, prior to this it would have been a paper sticker denoting standard or deluxe spec.

Series 2 hinges are different, they dont open as wide. best to repin your originals

the spliter for the window vents is just push fit with the ducts up to the vents. I find that heater really good. no cold fresh air intake

some late split screen had the Bakelite heater, but the gold heater was fitted up to 56

check the adjustment of the hinges and the brace under the bonnet may just need it there.

for a 54 should be gold with no ducting around it

those labels look the part

Standard spec 4 door a bit unusual. very nice machine

jealous of your tool kit. Looks good in there

A great project and another splitty saved
