Morris Minor Owners Club

Key No. is prefixed with FP. Don't suppose any one will miss it probably they've been using something else!

Has anyone lost some keys. Found in the Village Walk, Onchan precinct car park. MM key fob with a small union key on it.[frame][/frame]

I too have problems trying to get the spares page.....got the same message as Bethany. Can anyone answer the problem??

I acquired my Minor this year and have been pootling about the Isle of Man with it. The first time I drove it I became instantly aware of the differences between an older car and those on the road today; even the differences from the age of car I learned to drive in (early 80's) and my first car. Fo...

ok, thanks

I need to get my series II steering wheel repaired, as its split and some bits missing. Anyone know the best place? Currently waiting for Myrtle Productions to provide a price but got a feeling its going to be expensive!

Aye, still Scottie then. LOL

Hi, I was in the same situation as you a few months ago and posted a messgae, see 'Beginners Help'. Had loads of useful info from members which I was most grateful for. There's also a good article on buying a moggy in the technical tips section. You may also be able to enlist the help of a local mem...

Well done, just watch out for the other muppets on the road! lol the kid jaw dropping at the standard sound of a moggy, pmsl

Thats the one

Hi, Being a newcomer and browsing the site a short while ago, I remember there was a messageboard article and thread on fitting a new headlining. In it the member posted a blow by blow account of how to install the head lining which was very informative, with some useful tips. Can't for the life of ...

Thanks, i'll give it a go

Have a 1956 series II, can you repair the steering wheel? Some of it has cracked and some small bits missing, or do I need to buy a new one?

Oh gawd I don't know if I could be that radical!

Thanks Queenie, just checkin. Dont want to do anything radical, just in case I decided to, would be as traditional as pos tho.

Is it a total faux pas to change the paint colour of a moggy?

Tried posting a pic of the cross member but for some reason I can attach to the reply but thats as far as we get. The cross member appears undulating and seems to appear as two layers rateher than a crusty layering that you get with rust that has expanded. Are there any pictures on the site that I c...

Thanks Kevin, thats really informative and I now know what a cover plate is. As I thought, its a sheet of metal welded on to a corroded area of the car to repair & cover it. Thanks for the photo of the kick plates, this confirms this one as well. On a saloon do they extend over the rear wheel ar...

Thank you for the valued comments. Will get in touch with the IOM member.

Well had a look at the car, sad thing the owner passed away in November so the wife is selling the car. She doesn't drive it and never has apparently, hence why I didn't take it out. Engine compartment seemed clean enough, didn't start car as I saw the cover panels first and thought that was it. If ...
