Morris Minor Owners Club

I ordered some for my series II from this chap two years ago, very impressed with the quality great friendly service, met him at the Tredegar House show in Newport Sept 2011 very genuine and knows his stuff, am looking to buy some more this year with different dates

I think there is a thread about this already, think it's in General Discusions somewhere.

I can confirm these seals go on the under side of the door, bought some similar a while back, only to find the channels were to badly rusted, so haven't fitted them yet.

Said i could be wrong. I had my 54 series II gas checked when i took it for MoT last year the car had been garaged for twenty + years the recon engine was 18 years old, it was new when i bought it. the gas test came back and it was running better than some modern pre catalytic cars.

Cymru Chroeso. welcome from Wales. this is the nut house hope you find it helpful, any questions just ask some mad hatter will come along and answer.

As has been said have it checked over by someone who knows what they are looking for, try contacting one of the branchs near to where the car is i'm sure someone will have a look for you. covering petrol cost doing it that way is cheaper than wasting 5k

Not only that but it would wrap around the suspension and drive shaft if front wheel drive and cause complete loss of control. why the numpty in this BMW has put chains on the front i'll never know, lack of basic knowledge i think of ones car, chains may be fine on ice as they dig into it. You have ...

Yes am in favour of cheaper MoT's for classics as in general there is less to check, but as Mark said above and i maybe wrong the few 1970 + cars i beleive require an emmission gas check.

After living and working in Shetland for twenty years i learned hard and fast the first winter i was there (76). Slow and steady wins day. At the start of the second winter i bought a pair of VERDISTIEEN WINTER PLUS tyres. Even though Shetland is part of the uk, being so far north and once being a N...

As Mike has said one or both of thee cars will have mounting points, it is not a legal requirment for vehicles of this age to have seat belts fitted, but it is strongley advised to fit them. Once you have fitted the seatbelts however, as they are fitted they come under the the MoT regulations and mu...

You could also contact the DLVA asking for the history file they will send you the relivant forms to send back with a fee payable, you should have by return a detailed history from when the vehicle was first registered.

I have a full set of Toyo's on my Series II not had any problems yet. Have had them on my modern before found to be a good tyre. My son runs his Fiat Stilo 2 Ltr Sport on 205/45/17 Toyo's never any problems. Toyo Tyres where originaly made by Toyota cars in house for there range of cars, until it wa...

The other thing to think about is hydrolics where to fit the tank, where will the ram fit, hydrolic lines, how will you power the hydrolics mechanical pump or electric, will the pick up electrics cope,without a serious upgrade. Then after doing all that you find out you are over your axle weight bef...

Tartan Paint is one i can remember.

Checky bloke I am i've been in touch with this chap, the car was first registered in oct 1964 which makes it a B reg, but a previous owner did a regerstration change for a pre 63 plate. so that is where the mix up came from. the number plate is pre 63 but the car is 64. I hope this will put people's...

Sorry Mike, at the moment the MoT fee is £55 but i beleive from April next year (2012) as there is a change in what is tested on the test i e more items have been added the test fee will rise to i beleive £64.80. Just to bring joy and happiness to the motorist. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

SNAP ON you pay for what you get the best in the business, expensive yes but the quality and customer support are second to none, plus if you break a spanner or screwdriver or any other tool thats proven to be faulty within reason they will replace it FREE. can't see Halfords or your local tool sha...

I am aware you can't change the dash over, but you can add thr later model bits and pieces as they just bolt on from behind. the centre speedo dash came November 54 and was updated as time went on by bolt on add ons. as i said the person selling the car is only using the information he/she has. look...

And your meaning is what, that the car has had a respray, late model switches and surround fitted, and the car has had a registration change. The person selling it may not be as knowledgable as some of us and may have written the add thinking the information they have is correct, or maybe it was don...
