Morris Minor Owners Club

Looks like Chas Ware have them, Part No. HTR110.

Thank you Phil, I will speak to BM tomorrow.

Whilst overhauling the suspension on my 1966 2 door saloon I would like to replace the shackle pins (and eyebolt pins) using UNF items as recommended. I'm having some trouble finding a supplier for these pins although there is plenty of choice for the BSF types, and at least one supplier for UNF tru...

Edd,
Well done indeed!
I've followed the ups and downs of your rebuild with interest and admiration, and have learned much I didn't know previously.
This has been an example of the forum at its best.

Panky, the manifold looks great. What paint did you use?

In the 60's I ran my first car (1937 Rover 12, cost me a tenner) on Jet petrol. It was cheaper than National, Regent, Mobil etc. My rear window sticker proudly proclaimed "This vehicle is JET propelled". Wish I still had the car (and the sticker)!

Variation on last quote: Having taken a pair of wheels to my local tyre depot for tyre renewal the fitter asked what car they were off. Told him '66 Minor 1000. He said he thought he had been conceived in one of those. Told him it had nothing to do with me; think he believed me!

Hi Steve, I struggled for ages with sockets on hub nuts and before I did any more damage I ordered one of the Aussie spanners. Brilliant! Nuts loosened easily with a bit of hammer assistance. Good service from the supplier. Cheers, Peter.
