Morris Minor Owners Club

He works for the daily Mail

Careful now, thats like calling someone a racist, sexist, homophobic xenophobe in one simple statement.

Oh dear.

oh dear, oh dear, oh dear...

Looks lovely. I like the bizarre colour scheme too. Have to admit, if it was me I'd have got a few mates to push it back onto its feet and prob driven it home. Remarkable how strong they are... especialy a trav. At the risk of offending trav owners I'd have expected it to blow apart like a bit of ol...

I am a little worried by shell might go walkies (outside on an industrial estate) but I'm re-assured by the fact theres probably not enough good steel in it to make it attractive.

Cheers, I thought smoke grey was greyer/lighter blue.
I guess it depends on light/polish/40 years of fade..etc..etc..

A fine looking pram-top in the FS section...

Anyone know what colour it is?
Ideally I need a paint code, RAL, BS, ICI etc.. so I can order up some of the gloopy stuff.
Cheers me dears!

If you buy a kit it should be all in the instructions. Practical Classics also have a Morris Minor disc fitting guide (jlh again iirc), sadly for us bodgers it consists of "Go to supplier, buy kit, fit kit" :( If you find a way of fitting some other random discs on off another vehicle - ke...

Not again..

You have my congratulations and jealousy in equal measure.

The rangey upfront included within my comment.

then I remembered how you can run a clock off a potato, and so I tried a baby pearl potato, which didn't work either.

Well duh..

Now, several of them, connected in serial, might have worked.

Dont do your grinding in an office. I speak from experience modifying server cabinets. Boy did it stink, the smell of obliterated grinding disc hung around for weeks after.

Love it! Solves all my moving about problems. I'll yank the lump outta my project, chuck my trailerboard on the back and shazam - one easily moveable 'trailer'. :D Its almost too easy. I'd heard the whole 'no engine/trans makes it a trailer' thing before but honestly thought any copper that pulled m...

What

The

F...udge

?

I always wanted one of these but they were doing silly money. Still, cheaper than a 5 speed conversion (but what isnt? ).
Were they only used in Midgets? What did the Wolseley/Riley cars use?

I wont be buying it when your finshed

I should think it would be a very good propostion when finished - given that 90% of the car would be new.
Though, to be fair, it will have been built by me - first time I've wielded a welder and what a way to learn!

Are there no other members nearby who may be able to lend a fresh set of eyes? Theres no doubting your own ability - as a minor owner its safe to assume some level of competence - but another perspective always helps. Just to recap - fuel is getting to the carb and you are NOT getting any spark? If ...

My last moggy went through a period of giving me jip. Not starting, running rough - going then cutting out etc... I pulled all igntion stuff to bits, everything was working in isolation. Couldnt find a thing wrong with it so - I gave up and binned all of it. (fuelling side was fine) I got a kit from...

Flippin nanny state. I've towed for miles using a rope, there's no safety risk provided the tower and towee have a modicum of common sense. It annoys me when folk are deemd so stupid as to require un-necessary laws to mitigate their assumed stupidity - the rest of us sufferring as a result. I guess ...

Thanks to the weather the important jobs are being ignored, so I've been playing with the simple stuff. Wings have been cleaned up and painted inside: http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/302463_2131857888249_1000050758_32184999_4529732_n.jpg I use this to fill the gap where the inner curv...

lol cheers.
Concentrating on panels at the moment, the poor shell is being ignored due to the weather.
