Morris Minor Owners Club

Can anyone help as I need the color code for the white doors of a panda as it looks more of a creamy white than a bright white.

Can you help?

Thanks

Joe

By doing this will it not retain the water behind the sealant which in time will rust the aperture? Even though I would like to stop the water coming in I wouldn't like the water to be doing damage where it's not visible. A good point though, thanks, I might try this route but when refitting the rub...

Hah, give you a tenner to jump the Q have you got his contact details might see about using him but also might wait till I hear you're satisfied

I don't know about you, but the heavens opened up on me today while trying to enjoy a ride in my 56 :roll: and in came the rain, from under the windscreen rubber bottom left and bottom right. Not knowing if the rubber has ever been replaced I thought I better go down that route. Is there a very good...

Richard Plant of Minor Parts Oxford. After searching for another carb for my 56, and being quoted REDICULOUS prices from dealers, I contacted Richard who told me he had a second hand one I could try and charged me £20. Put the carb on, and she fired up and has never missed a beat. Couldn't be happie...

Hi BMC & guys, well, I HAVE fitted a rebuild kit myself and was quite easy, reason for doing this was that it never ran correctly, very rich even after max adjustment. I even painted it and made it look bling :roll: . Put it all back together and still got the same problems. :roll: I found that ...

I need my carb, off the 56, rebult as its playing up and theink the vaccum slide is slightly kinked, dont know how. But it does not return completely to the bottom unless I loosen one of the screws :roll: Ive called SU carbs, but they want £210 + Vat to rebuild it and takes 6-8 weeks. Is there anyon...

Ive just stripped and refurbished my H2 carb. Only problem is, its chucking out petrol from the float bowl lid where the two breathing notches are. Is there anyone in the club or outside it that can do the refurb again. Ive done everything else right, just the float bowl leak is getting on my nerves...

That is a very good point

Wow, Louise that's good to hear, at least I know I'm not going mental I suppose the date of registration is what I'm stuck with and they would not change it to the date of manufacture

C'mon Mike, im not that sad give it time, I say.

Well, I thought i'd go down that route first What would you suggest I could do??? As my insurance company need to be updated too

I have just received a certificate of Authenticity from Rob to say my 1956 948cc is a 1966. I would like to thank Rob for taking the time and trouble to send me this certificate. Im a little bemused though and cant seem to understand how this can happen. As you can see from the pictures................

The floor and carpet on the front of my 56 seem damp and wet, smells musky. I've checked the rubbers on the split windscreen and seem to be tight against the glass. Does the split section suffer from leaks? Gotta take the carpets out now and wash them and refresh them, the floor underneath is wet :-...

Thanks guys, tried Tom Roys website but nothing under Boot parts will call him and Chris Ware tomorow

Is there anyone who repairs or re-cons heaters for a 56 or 63? Surely I dont have to bin it, would like to have it done and keep it as it should be. The 63 works well but wouldn't mind giving it a treat The 56 wont even turn on, so would really like to get it fixed.

Im on the lookout for a rear boot emblem with reflector for my 56. Ive come across the emblem, which seems to be readily available. BUT, can I find a reflector? No chance :( does anyone know where can I get one? Also, who is the cheapest/best quality for parts? Ive come across Moss, Bull Motif, ESM ...

Ive asked to speak to a supervisor or manager, but told, "They will say the same thing" Barstewards

Hi guys, sorry for the delay in replying, festivities etc etc. Thank you all for replying. The only documents I have with the vehicle is old MOT's but they dont have the year on them. There wasn't any original documents with it :( and the previous V5 had 56 on it, as I checked this when I bought it....
