Morris Minor Owners Club

"....I've recently bought a morris minor, I love it, however, the brakes are not as good as my modern car..."

Aaaaagh!!!

Now you're retired, you can use it to deliver takeaways with deliveroo!!

Identifying this van is ONE of my top 5 priorities!

Chassis nos stamped into b/head & cab number should be there BUT....a BIG but with lurpak on the boiled spuds & a nice salad with a blue cheese sauce...will need a log book to claim the original regn back!

I know SEB (Southern Electricity Board) had Travellers, certainly make sense with the Berks registration.

South West Electricity Board with Bristol marks, South Wales Electricity mainly Swanea(I think?), Southern Electricity mixed with Reading/Pompey/Bournemouth & Middx....

Not quite as bad as Blackadder's horse

Pic on fb showing PO van radiator stencil...OVEHEATING, close, but no Cig R

Seen a radiator where SCOLDING is used, instead of SCALDING!!

The Car/Body number was moved from the engine bulkhead to the driver's (RH) floor pan when the Elephant Trunk heater was put through the bulkhead in 1963 ish. So of course many later cars have lost the stamped number when the floor has been replaced. As regards the other numbers on the top thin lon...

The Car/Body number was moved from the engine bulkhead to the driver's (RH) floor pan when the Elephant Trunk heater was put through the bulkhead in 1963 ish. The change took place later than that.

Thanks SO much Phil!

Change should be listed in parts books, anyone have an AKD showing the engine number when the oil to paper air filter altered....have a load of 1958-1959 chassis/engine nos combinations on our database, shouldn't be THAT difficult to translate engine to chassis nos

Must be before Xmas when we last had vehicle details via this forum, about 30 via fb....this medium does work for number crunchers like us.

The design of the wiper motor bkt changed c1/59 - square to front bend - due to the oil bath to paper air filter. Roughly about chassis number 695xxx to 705xxx, would those of you owning Minor's of this period please pm me (stating which type/varient) & at least the 1st 4 digits of the chassis n...

May knock FB, but it has been a valuable source of info for us - mainly in the respect of number cruching - something you rarely see on standard forums.

Would STILL be in the stoneage without it

Checked the numbers?

It has ceased to be, it is an EX Register

Hi Les In all fairness, LCV Register let down by lack of activity & answers to questions. Can spend £'s on publicity/advertising & a professional looking forum, but IF it doesn't supply quickish answers nor supplies accurate info....it's a waste of time & enthusiasts will go elsewhere, t...

Would of thought the LCV Register fb site would have mentioned forum was either temporarily down or finished?
