Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi guys,does the MM use a different thread brake switch or are they the same as the later models?
Thanks,John.

Hi guys,is there anyone in the Romford,Essex area that could possible come to me to assist with wiring problems? Cant get the front sidelights or rear lights to work and there is some confusion as to the position of wires on headlight switch etc. Dont really want a complete rewire just to get the ol...

Cheers Mike but my wiring loom seems to be all the same colour under the outer sheathing! Original wiring I guess.
I will get there.
Thanks mate.

Hi all,the wheels on my `52 are not in the best of condition.Is it possible to fit others without changing the original brake drums etc? Are any alloys available?
Thanks,John.

Thanks guys,got it now.

Cant get the link.
I am very interested in these rubbers.Can you repost the link please?

Hi all,any prevoius owners of MXR 977 on here? A `52 MM.
I have owned for around 10 ten years but would love to hear from any previous owners.
John.

Hi guys,yes,I know this has been discussed a million times before but where is the best place to get a front screen rubber that actually fits? I have tried three now and each one has torn on the front sealing lip.All seem to be too small.
Its for a `52 MM.

Hi all,anyone fancy a swap with my `52 series MM? I really fancy a Mini which will take up less room in my garage.It does run and has the side valve engine .All brakes done and steering too.Needs interior finishing and the dreaded split screen fitting and general finishing off.Is on V5C with transfe...

Hi all,I am still looking for a useable water jacket for my `52 MM.
I am in the Romford,Essex area and would prefer to collect if you can help.
Thanks,John.

We had a saying where I used to work,,,,,if it wont go with a spanner,hit it with a hammer.That did the job!

I assume the seals are all made by one manufacturer?

Suzikimorris,I am in the Romford,Essex area.As we all know,this is probably the worse job on the whole car but as they were fitted in the first place it must be possible to fit without all this hassle!Or not.Can you imagine doing this on a production line! Looks like ANOTHER rubber is required. Pete...

Good to see the screen in place!Well,I still have not managed to fit mine and have succeded in tearing the outer lip again!
Now at desperation time.Just cant get it to fit.
Where did you get your rubber from?
As I say,I have now split two rubber seals.
John.

The saga continues,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,After splitting a second windscreen rubber on my `52 MM(tearing the outer seal with the string)while trying to fit it,I am on the verge of giving up!So this is a request to ask if there is a member in the Romford,Essex area who has experience of fitting the split sc...

Merry Christmas everyone and thanks for you help in the past.Much appreciated.

Good question Mike.I see no reason why this is not possible,maybe with a bit of gentle persuasion!
So can anyone help with any type of glass channel?

Hmmm,not nice.I can only sympathise with your feelings about this.There are some nasty people out there! Ebay,,,,,,,,a few bad experiences with mis described items and one reply from a business that I was `expecting too much` when I won a chrome silencer for my bike which was described as `real good...

Hi all,still looking for the glass channel runner that fits on the bottom of the rear door glass.This is the bit that the winder slides on.Hope this makes sense?
Its for a four door MM`52.
Thanks guys,any help much appreciated.
John.
