Is it okay to do this Phil with regards to protection on the underside as I Am due to wax oil my car soon as well.

I have a 1970 morris minor and would like to fit a pair of glovebox lids to the dash and wonder if the earlier flat lids would fit my car please?

That's a fabulous looking Hood Rob and it looks a very decent fit too, is it easy enough to clean as I had an Mgf mohair hood that stained quite easily.
The mohair roof does look better quality to my vinyl roof which is the same colour as yours.

Hi Pete,
Charles ware supply Mohair roofss,although I've not seen one in the flesh.
I have a convertible with a vinyl roof and would be interested how you get on and if the Mohair roof is better/improvement in anyway.
many thanks

I bought my Traveller carpets from Andrew Eggleton and I bought the premium set as the cheaper ones were thinner.
They fit very well too.

Im waiting for my invite and Iam looking forward to getting it done.

When I flushed and replaced my previous moggie I found there was alot of sludge blocking my tap

I work in a garage and when I talk with the young lads about alternator rebuilds and replacing brushes they look at me very strangely. Why bother when you can fit a new one is usually the answer. I much prefer the old days where skills were far greater and the job was far more interesting to strip,f...

Which is why I put Voltage in Bold on my instructions.

Ive realised what I wrote,Multimeter of course

I've put an ammeter across the battery today and it's 12v4. As I turn the heated screen on the volts drop to 11v 8 so am I correct in thinking that the screen is working as it should please?

Ive bought and fitted a heated front screen in my Traveller and after wiring it upvia a relay and switch Im not sure that it is working. Is there a way of checking if the screen electrics are working other than leaving the car outside as it is immobile in my garage at present. If anybody has fitted ...

Same here,new owners seeking advice and ressurecting older posts for comments...which is understandable.

A morris Minor convertible,a Morris Minor Traveller and an Mgf steptronic ...with the gearbos playing up!
Good job Moggies are on hand for reliability......

Brilliant,thanks Phil

My Morris convertible 1098 engine is due for a timing chain replacement as it is rattling and I wonder...
Is it a easy enough job to do with any tips and should I replace the sprockets as a kit or chain on its own?
many thanks

Thats great advice tahnk you both Phils, Im going to compile a list using your recomendations and I will tackle my Traveller over the winter in my garage.

I did my car with Dynax S50 and used a sealey SG18 gun to apply it. Like most of these products it is fairly thick like treacle and will not spray very well if at all when it is cold, my solution was to have a bucket of very hot water and stand the 5 litre container of S50 in it for a while to warm...

Seal arrived and fitted today (thanks Panky) the inside lip of the seal slots between the wooden frame and the slide felt.
Ive water tested and no leaks so Im really pleased

Ive just ordered the seal trim from Pankys original link as I like the look of that so hopefully it will fit easy enough.

Thats exactly what is happening Phil, I did wonder if it was worth fitting a seal to the b post where the window slides shut aswell maybe.
