Morris Minor Owners Club

No need to remove the pedals at all.

120 is getting a little on the low side but consistency across all 4 is the most important factor.

An evil necessity if you want the forum to appear in search engine results etc.

Bots trawl the whole web (inc forums) looking for email addresses and phone numbers.
It's a fact of modern life.

It's nothing at all to do with any site being hacked.
The spammers just send mass mails to addresses at random.

You might live to regret that - solid rust free cars are hard to find these days.
I see that at £2500 car at least.

You can't leave it like that - HOW was it sorted ?

What ratio diff?
Prop is the same so not needed.
What state is engine in?
What exactly are you getting for the money?

If you have the engine and box it's a straightforward swap mechanically. The only bit you'll need to work out is the hydraulic clutch or use Minor 1098 parts to convert to mechanical.

If you have a pressed engine backplate there's a good chance you'll have a 948 flywheel and clutch.
If it's a solid machined one it'll be 1098, but you won't know 100% until you take the box off.

Which flywheel you got?

Head gasket failure.

What do you mean that "it won't work" ?
Have you tried it on the car ?
How did you change the oil ?

I don't have an abutment plate on mine at all.......?

Sounds normal.

Did you buy the correct manifold too?
A picture would help us here.

So, am I correct in assuming that there is no door or cover on the glove box

Correct - not even a finishing strip of any kind, just a hole in the dash panel.

Probably means someone has swapped vin plates in the past, most likely to transfer a valuable reg plate off the car or to ring a stolen car.
The club can help to correctly ID the vehicle for you but it will be a load of work.

This is what was originally fitted to my 59 built chassis cab (it left the factory in grey primer).
