Morris Minor Owners Club

I bought a spare car for parts as it was totally rotten, was given another old boot lid, one was pretty rotten around the lip at the bottom, and the other was totally rotten all the way round. Since they were both scrap anyway, i decided to make a flush boot lid by cutting out the raised numberplate...

Hi all, i want to remove the boot handle on my morris minor and rig up some sort of internal release cable. Has anyone done this before, any advice would be greatly appreciated!

hi all, has anyone re-made their door cards? mine look like they have been removed a few times and sit out around the edge. I was going to remove the material, cut new plywood and the vinyl back on (more to it than this I know). has anyone attemped this, any hints and tips would be greatly appreciat...

there were three small splits about 10mm long on the front lip of the bonnet, my mate ground them out and filled them with weld so they wouldn't spread.[frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

hi, maybe its underseal, the floors have been coated inside and out, i'll have a go with the heat gun and scrapper, thanks for the reply.

hi all, i am about to replace the floor pans in my car. the floor looks like it has been coated with waxoil to the point where you can't see the joints. whats the best way of removing this? cheers

thanks for the replies, got the splits welded and ground down. The next question is if i use filler on the front edge of the bonnet, will it not crack with the force of closing the bonnet? there is a nasty dent as well which i hammered out the best i could.

Hi all, am trying to email ESM regarding parts, but my MS outlook isn't working. Does anyone have their email address so i can email them directly from yahoo? many thank.

thanks for the replies, removed the lower rear side panel today and looks like a whole lot of rot behind it, basically everything is rotten from wheel to wheel on the passenger side, have ordered boxing panel, lower rear side panel, rear floor panel and outer under sill repair panel, B post is prett...

Is this the right panel? cheers[frame][/frame]

Hi all, i removed the passenger kick panel and found some serious rot underneath. The boxing panel and kick panel need replacing and the part of the floor outside the boxing panel, anyone know what its called? thanks

I haven't done any work in that area, and the hinges are tight to the a pillar, the bodywork around the a pillar looks original as is the door so it should fit???

hi all, i was sanding down my bonnet and noticed a small split in the metal lip, does anyone know the best way to fix this?

hi all, the door closes but is very tight at the handle side, the wing lines up with the rain gutter exactly as the passenger side. unless both wings need moved back. if anyone has a picture of the door/wing gap and door/rear panel gap so i can see what size the gaps are meant to be. Also a picture ...

Hi all, the drivers side door on my 1965 2 door is a very poor fit. There is a good half inch between it and the wing. There isn't much play in the hinges and the A pillar is solid, the gap is there even when the door is closed. has anyone any ideas what the problem is? thanks

Hi all, there are a couple of repair patches on the rear floors where they meets the back seat, unfortunately they cover the holes for the new hand brake cables (where the outer sleeve bolts on) so i'm going to replace the floors. Does anyone know where to get good fitting floor panels? and can you ...

Which panels are the holes for the cables on? ie. in the floor pans, transmission tunels etc. I will be cutting the old floor pans out and fitting new half panels from ESM soon. cheers

hi, thanks for the answers, the car was stripped when I bought it, never owned one before so kind of like making a jigsaw puzzle without the finished picture!

Hi all, bought and fitted new handbrake cables but the brake doesn't work when the lever is pulled, and they hang very low, I know there are screws attached that look like they bolt the outer sheath to somewhere underneath the car, but where? without this the whole cable moves instead of just the ca...
