Re: Steering wheel lock
Having only recently acquired a Morris Minor and being aware of the vulnerability of older, less sophisticated cars to thieves, I've unearthed a nice bright yellow wheel clamp from my garage where it's been languishing for several years. Hopefully it will act as a visual and actual deterrent for the...

Re: Steering wheel lock
Mod. Says: "This post and the one after it refer to a post that was reported and has been deleted." Er, this thread resurrection is either a joke or an effort to sell something isn't it? Pouches for keyless-entry equipment, steering column locks, parking light - on a Morris Minor? Are you ...

Re: Spotted today.
David Ogle, who established the company, sadly died after a crash in an SX1000 in 1962. His company continued however, going on to design the Reliant Robin, Reliant Scimitar, Bond Bug etc.

Re: How Far have you driven?
Just bought my first ever Moggie and drove it 510 miles back home to Surrey from Fife. Not planning on making that sort of trip a regular feature of ownership though!

Traveller Restoration
Just a quick heads-up for anyone who may be interested: the Wheeler Dealers restoration of a Minor Traveller is being shown again at 5pm today on Quest - Freeview channel 37. It's been on several times before but there may be someone who ain't seen it yet.

Re: My Damascene Conversion
Interesting but, I suppose, unsurprising differences of opinion as to the suitability for purpose or otherwise of MM drum brakes. I certainly take your point Mark that traffic movement today, both speeds attained and stopping distances, is a long way removed from the halcyon(?) days of the Morris Mi...

Re: My Damascene Conversion
Thanks MOJ; that is very much my own inclination for the brakes, at least for the time being. One other aspect of moggiedom that I quickly became aware of on my long journey home is its apparently total inability to absorb road imperfections, crashing and banging over even the slightest broken road ...

Re: My Damascene Conversion
Thanks for your advice about brakes Monty (and also your kind words about Myrtle). I've now read your thread about fitting Wolseley drums and if a) I could locate a set and b) were mechanically competent enough to fit them I'd be on it like a shot. As it is though, I'll pursue the correct any faults...

Re: My Damascene Conversion
Many thanks for all your kind words chaps. I have to say that, having taken the plunge and bought myself a moggie I'm an instant convert - I now 'get it'. Even the initial 500 mile drive down the motorway, noisy and relatively slow though it was (55 to 60mph, occasionally 65 to 70) did nothing to da...

My Damascene Conversion
A big hello to everyone - I'm a new member with a newly-acquired car. A bit of background; although I used to travel as a passenger in them fairly frequently (two of my pals owned them) I never really 'got' the Morris Minor thing and, to be fair, they were then at the stage where they were regarded ...
