Morris Minor Owners Club

the car is looking good will be nice to see it on the road, hope the project goes well for you

The front, rear, quarter light and side windows have shaped seals and are available from all the usual sources. You could buy the profile and make your own front and rears, but I don't think you would save much. The door glass had felt originally and you can replace with that or a modern coated rub...

Hi does anyone know where I can get some clipper blue paint for a respray ?

welcome.. the car might have been built and exported in the early 50's, being reimported in 1961 and hence registered for the first time in that year.. but be careful check the chassis plate is correct for the car.. Hi as far as I am aware the car has always been kept local as it was purchased by a...

It certainly won't be a split screen at 1961. Also fitting a 1275 is likely to increase the fuel consumption (if only because you can drive it faster!) - an all important consideration these days...... Worry about the brakes before increasing the power. And don't get too excited about 'lowering' yo...
