Morris Minor Owners Club

The diesel car was rescued, it had it's roof stoved in by kids jumping on it, floor was rusted out, no engine or box, most of the running gear had been stripped and it was growing in the grass, as for build quality, take a look at the stage photos, it's built like a tank and will out last time itse...

If it looks like a Morris Minor - it is a Morris Minor :D Pete I would call it a Morris bodied peugot! There is more to a Minor than it's looks, it is also about the original driving experience which in my opinion is the best bit and that is what is lost with this type of "mechanical modificat...

This is a link to a blog by rtg , there are some interesting pictures of a car he is working on, I cannot get over the state of it having already been restored and maintained by another specialist.

My vote would have to go to Russell at RTG Services, no job to big or small all done at your home and very high quality work.
At very low prices

You would have thought that would be the case! but they still keep getting plenty of customers! As to the reason why they do, I dont know either, maybe its because not everyone has the same bad experience. But remember the engine I brought was a private sale. Hello AW54, "There are plenty of co...

There are plenty of companies who manage to keep trading regardless of the service they provide!

Russell tells me he comes across a lot of this! and not just engines!

I do owe him a big favour, as he does not drink I will just keep singing his praises.

Russell happens to be an accomplished power lifter an ex olympic weight lifter as well as a very good morris restorer!
And as he said to me a bare engine does not weigh that much!!

First of all I would like to thank Russell of RTG Services for helping me get my money back. I recently brought a 1275 engine to upgrade my morris, It was sold to me as fully rebuilt, It had lots of paper work to back this up and it did look the part. Russell did advise to take him along with him to...

Hello Russ I have decided to go for a 1275 with a 5 speed gearbox. Will be better for longer trips, I have also got some disc brakes to fit, Have you still got that escort rear axle? Regards Mike Hello Mike Yes I went to the show, went on the saturday, luckerly it did not rain, lots of minors there,...

Hello Russell Good to see you have joined. Also I have got a new engine! When can you come and fit it? Did you go to the Bristol Classic car show? Mike I have decided to join the Morris Minors owners club. Also thank you Mike David and Steve for your nice comments about my work. Russell RTG Services

Thats what I think too, It's very rare these days to find someone like that.
I spoke to him today and he has got a front grill for me.

How is this for service! After having my car serviced a couple of weeks ago I decided to go on one of my road trips! Well we set out early Saturday morning to Weymouth taking our time stopping a few times on the way, the car running lovely. We stayed in a nice b&b for the night and headed home y...

Here is another one of my finds, This was a van once![frame][/frame]

The owner was a bit eccentric, he brought the car new, I think in 1958, and because he brought another car he just parked this one up and left it! If you look at the picture carefully you can see the engine is sticking out of the front, I remember him telling me he had tried to move the car, which h...

Hello Im new to this site, I have owned my morris for ten years now I dont use it that much but do enjoy a road trip now and again. On my travels I always keep an eye out for other morris's, especially those that are laid up in a front garden or field, I have attached a photo of a car i saw in Hertf...

Also I joined this site thanks to his advice, and i would like to say what a goo site it is.

The 3hours was my fault as I mentioned, too much chatting on my part! I think his price for a service is very good, I have been looking back through my cars histoty, covering the last ten years It has had alot of money spent on it! and has been serviced every year, The lowest service cost until now ...

How much would you charge for a full service?

I could offer a service much much cheaper than that if I went into buisness!

Anyone on here put that ad up??? Seems a little much for a mobile service with no premases etc...

He was doing my car for nearly 3hours, but that was my fault as i was chatting a bit to much! But not about the morris!
I was chatting to him about automating my gates, thats something else he does!

What should it cost to have a full service?
