Mechanic in Derby?
Posted: Thu Aug 29, 2019 7:53 am
Hi, I'm new to the message board.
I bought a Morris Minor 1000 2 door saloon in bits in May and have been putting it back together since. Its essentially back in one piece now. I've insured it, taxed it and driven it (rather carefully, on deserted roads) a few miles without incident...
I've run out of talent with trying to hang the drivers door, I cant get it to fit properly no matter how many times I try.. it will shut on its safety latch but not fully. I don't want to be defeated by the door when everything else has gone ok...
Does anyone know or have any experience of a minor-friendly garage in the Derby area with a real, genuine approachable mechanic who could help me with this?
Its been off the road for a couple of years as well so it could do with a good general look over by someone who understands it better than me (I am by no means an expert).
Thanks.
Ian.
