Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi

If anyone is still looking I have found the garage in Ruddington, on Easthorpe Street NG11 6LA to be very good and knowledgeable.

This years run was a second and a wonderful weekend, marvellous organosation in a relaxed atmosphere, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will be recommending it to anyone we can get to listen.

many thanks for an unforgetable run

Regards

Keith and Doris

Hi I have recently had my speedo overhauled. Once fitted everything eas fine for the first 40-50 miles on a long run then the speedo failed again. As it was under warranty I took it back and when opened we found there was agreat deal of oil present which just stopped the magnets doing their thing. T...

Thanks for all the input

I have 155 x14 tyres fitted, do you think these would have made a difference

Regards

Keith

Hi I have a 1969 1098cc Traveller, as far as I can tell it has a standard rear axle differential, but I am suspicious an incorrect speedo. It appears to be registering about 10 MPH more than it should at about 50 mph. As the traveller has different differential ratio to the 2 door saloon, I assume t...

Hi Steve

Are you still looking for additional companions, as my wife and I are very interested in joining you for what looks as if it could be a great long week end.

Cheers

Keith

Hi Chris If you are still looking I have a couple of old grey Metro front seats if you are interested. They are dirty, but should clean up well, there are no tears. You can easily get the sub frames and I can dig out the suppliers name if you need it. I can't help with the rear ones though. Regards ...

Hi If you are still looking I have had my 2 door resprayed over here in Nottingham for £2,000 and that included some repair and refurb. The 2 lads were very professional and helpful, they even invoiced less than the initial "guestimate quote", and thats a first in my experience. I am very ...

Many thanks for the suggestion of talking to Polyfacto I have found them to be very helpful, and have ordered my new hood.

I am expecting it early next week and will let you know how we get on fitting it to the new frame I got from one of the main dealers

Hi Louise

Thanks for your reply, The steering wheel is a standard one that I got resprayed with hardened white. I got the gear stick and hand brake done at the same time, and it does finish it off nicely.

Kind Regards

Keith

Hi Having worked on my 2 door saloon last year (picture below) I am nearing the end of a restoration of a much neglected SII saloon previously converted to a soft top. (I guess I have now got the moggie bug) The existing frame is well past its best and the heavy canvas top in need of some TLC. So I ...

Thanks for all your help

Sorry but I am not the Keith you have met as I dont recognise Spud, but he sure looks like a great companion.

Thanks Lou I think I will follow up on the CW Bath lead as I think my seats are quite old, but as a newbie can you tell me what CW stands for?

Hi

The chassis number strarts M.A2S5- so I am I right and it was a 2 door saloon, in which case I will definately get it checked over to ensure it was converted safely

Thanks for your help

Keith

Hi

I understand that you need to get some frames that fit underneath the metro seats so that they can go in the Moggie. Can anyone tell me where you can buy them and what sort of cost they are

Many Thanks

Keith

Hi I am new to this and would welcome some help and advice. I have purchased a rather tatty convertible as a renovation project. I am suspicious it is a saloon conversion. When I look at the gap on the doors it is tight at the bottom but almost half an inch at the top, which suggests to me the chass...
