Morris Minor Owners Club

Have to admit, I find folk react differently to my driving when I am in the Morris. My other car at the mo is a honda jazz, which isn't much quicker than the Morris. I have just adapted my driving to suit the cars - slow lane, not overtaking unless there is a mile clear in the right hand lane etc. T...

cool dude.

nice vid. Good luck with the rest of it

Looks a nice place to reside as well, more wood than people always appeals

a dim view?!

whenever i mention i am just popping out to the garage, it's like someones turned the big light off!!

a veil of darkness decends.......

"your always out there with that bloody thing..."....blah blah

'67 Traveller in Ayr, really nice example. [frame][/frame]

According to Ray Newell the large light units came into use in late 1963 but the 3-spoked wheel and pull start disappeared in october 1964 so your description sounds correct, it should have open glove boxes and a gold faced speedo. This would match with my car (13 02 1964). It has a 3-spoked wheel,...

just up the road fae me as well

geeza shout the next time Mr Cameron

Cool, I was just meaning to highlight the kind of issues/costs I have had with a similar aged car of simliar price, T&T'd etc. There are a number of threads on the seatbelts in the technical forum. There are some good pics etc. We haven't fitted them yet. Some of the models apparently have ancho...

great name

good job sir, keep us updated

Hello I am by no means as experienced and knowledgable as many on here who will no doubt offer valuable advice and guidance, but I did something similar to your senario. I bought the '64 four-door in the pic below aff ebay without inspecting it first:oops: . I :roll: (I say I, but the old man did al...

Wow-Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

That is an amazing amount of work.

Well done, I take it you are finished now?

cheers

I have browsed the threads for info, and found it very helpful. However, I would like a wee confirmation. symptoms - When changing into third and fourth gears, the clutch appears to not fully engage. I have also found it to slip underload (going up a hill) occassionally. I have attempted to wd40 the...

i had exactly the same symptoms, well my car did.

we check the bat, changed brushes on dynamo, motored it, checked output, the whole shabang.

new control box on order from bull motif, 25 quid or there abouts.

good luck.

its cool. panic over captain manwaring;)

lose connection on coil, disturbed when removing dynamo.

new regulator ordered.

thanks anyway.

starts when shorted out regulator

regulator broken???

looks like the regulator is knackered, ignition light comes on when shorting out two terminals on the regulator

Hello I was having an issue with the ignition light staying on. I read all advice on here, check dynamo, it was motoring fine, changed brushes anyway. We put it all back together and now there is no ignition at all! No light, the battery is wired up correctly, all connections are back in place any i...

the battery went flat on me yesterday. So new bushes for the dynamo have been purchased off ebay. Hi Archie and welcome, I assume its just a typo and that you meant new brushes. Nope, I'm just thick :lol: You say tomato, I say........cucumber. Oh no! Hope I haven't just bought two privet hedges off...

Well, I finally went and done it. After years of debating, should I, shouldn't I.................. I totally ignored the wife, and the overtones from my mechanic father (they have no brakes son, I mean, there are NO brakes!) and purchased a 1964 Morris 1000 :D At the moment it is almond green, a pre...
