Morris Minor Owners Club

We having waited for reminder that has not arrived, thought I had better brave the local post office.... To my amazement it was so simple, Handed over my V5C, the guy scanned the bar code, he then filled out my disc and handed it over. I imagined that Tax and MOT exempt would create lots of hassle b...

Hi Looking for advice I have a 54 split screen which has devolped a noise in 1st gear sounds it is catching something ?

broken bits will most likley be in cam followers, so I would suggest taking covers off and looking. Remember to put back in same place you took them out of. But yes as everyone says would contact supplier, refund or replace and ask for gaskets foc, you have paid once ! Name and shame to allow others...

The answer is yes used to do it on mini, but is more than a one person job and is much more reliable to remove head. The problem is that you have to remove rockers to get cap and collits out. Would also sugget that you might want to check valve seat if it has been running with broiken valve spring f...

Hi, How much difference is there ? 10, 20, 30, 40mm is it all the way or just at the rear of the car If you measure from the floor to the top of the wheel arch at the rear it is usually a good guide. If the floors and spring hangers have been changed then this could be a problem. I think more pictur...

just to add an opinion. 212 mile drive down, Son well impressed giving a lesson on what moggies can be like.......... why does the rain collect in patches ? because they polish the paint ? However have to agree with most, food / coffee was at best an expence at worst not available. Food although we ...

As with all these things...

What happens when you wake up and start the engine

But yes when you run out of things to pull apart, clean put back to gether and you have no leaks. then it's time to get another Minor.............

If you mean this one RP102CL then no it finishes at the vertical behind the seat which just clips the edge of the spring hanger.
I have just replaced the panel and should have done both at the same time but was scared of the amount of metal I was removing.

if the split screen half has the chrome in the screen rubber I might bid !

Has any one got booking confirmation back ? I sent my cheque a while ago but not heard back yet. Does anyone have rules for camp site, do they allow BBQ's ? Is booking per space as just looked at our tent and sharing with son may be more than I can stand. Were travelling from Burnley area early on s...

Hoping to be up and running, booked campsite for Saturday taking my son, will possibly be just behind or in front of you planned my none motorway route down...............

Peter

Many thanks Flat up it is

Peter

Have just sorted this out and looking to put back on. however trying to find a picture of which way up it goes is hard work, just gone through cars for sale on here and they do vary ?

I am sure some one will put me right ?

When I built my Berlinetta I got some from a local fabric shop that sells from the rolls. As long as you don't want exact colour match or your doing the whole set it's cheap, place near me has some dark red very simular to my car and its £6.00 per meter and its a meter wide. If I am passing I will t...

Hi all
In my seemingly endless search for a head lining for my split screen (small back window) minor I have a question.
Are the bars and plywood front bar the same for all models and all years.
It may help as if I can get bars etc I will buy a new headlining.

Peter

You just missed one on ebay 2 days ago ?

Best thing is to borrow one ?

Peter

it may seem easier to ask do your wheels have the extra hole to adjust the brakes through, and 3 little pips to locate the wheel hub cap fi so they are early type ?

I have one if you have this style.

I got a spare then the guy who I got the car from found the original so I have 2.


Peter

I will send one of those special cheques, simular to the one given to me when I sold some parts on ebay, lucky I didn't send the bits when the cheque arrived (purely by chance). or Cash on collection Ebays provision is who's level of a little are we going to use mine, yours or Geordie Dave's ? Best ...
