Re: Fitting new drop links - what am I doing wrong?!

It is on both sides, I can get the fixing partly through the damper arm hole enough to get the nut on but cannot get the full length of the taper through. I’ve tried gentle persuasion and that doesn’t work. It all lines up just won't go all the way through as I would expect. I’ll try to clean the ho...

Front and rear steel valance

Good evening,

I’m looking for 2 good condition front and rear valance for our 1959 Morris. My front one might be repairable but on the look out to see what’s available. Anywhere in East Anglia or the Midlands would be good.

Thanks,

James

Damper valve spring

Good afternoon, I have just taken my dampers apart to clean them up and one of them is missing the spring that goes into the body and the valve goes through. Does anyone have a spare one at all? I've attached a picture and circled the spring in question. Apologies in advance Declan Burns for using o...

Looking for a rollover jig in East Anglia

Evening everyone,

We are getting ready to start a rebuild on our 1959 Morris minor and before pressing buy on a new rollover jig, wondered if anyone in East Anglia had a jig we could buy off them or hire?

Many thanks,

James

Speedo retaining screws

I’ve just had the Speedo repaired on our 1959 4 door Moggy but I’ve misplaced the two retaining screws for it. Does anyone know the part number? Couldn’t easily find it looking at the parts diagrams I’ve found online.

Many thanks,

James
