Re: Slding wndow channel

Thanks very much for the reply, I've taken a look at Woodies website and see they are listed as chrome edge strip. I'll give them a ring and see what they say.

Slding wndow channel

I am looking at the sliding window channels for my traveller. The usual suppliers I use, one sells the bright edge bottom channel and another advertises them as stainless finish, but are not sure if it is stainless or not. Because of my seaside location and my obsession with using stainless wherever...

Re: Traveller sliding windows

Thanks for the replies, they are much appreciated. I have read the threads and Googled fitment of the channels and the questions that still remain are; Why the inner track is shorter and finishes under the metal cover strip. Surely it would be a better job to continue it to the end and let the metal...

Re: Roof Fitment

I have been told by the wood supplier that the roof spars do not have to contact the roof and are there to fix the headlining to and to prevent lateral movement of the side frames.

Traveller sliding windows

I am trying to find as much Information as I can on the Traveller sliding windows fitment as I can before I go ahead with the job. Would the Ray Newell "Morris Traveller; The Complete Companion" book be a good buy? The Haynes manuals I have are a waste of time and the workshop manuals don'...

Roof Fitment

Ok, the woodwork is nearly finished and the roof has been trial fitted. The questions I have are; The roof is resting on the roof spars at the outer edges but there is a gap between the spars and the roof as you come around the curve (pictures attached). Is this normal (expansion/contraction of the ...

Donor seats

Hi, I want to change my front traveller seats to something more comfy so what have you used for the front and rear seats? I would prefer seats from a 2 door model so that access to the rear is as easy as possible. I have looked at the Newton Commercial seats and love the look but the price is out of...

Re: Dashboard dials

Hi,

Your dash looks just like what i want on my Traveller to house switches/gauges/stereo. Maybe a dumb question but is that done with a glove box door of a left hand drive Moggy? Any info would be gratefully appreciated.

Cheers in advance,

Chris.

Love the post :D. Using the Powerspark means I will have to live another 12 years and as I plan on milking my "gold plated pension" I should be in pocket.

Re: Distributor type

Thanks for the replies. I have found the distributor type in an old Morris workshop manual and a Haynes manual, it is a 25D4.

Bmcecosse, What would the difference be between the 25D and the 45D that you suggest?

Cheers,

Chris.

Distributor type

Hi, I am looking at converting my 1971, 1098cc traveller to electronic ignition for convenience. Has anybody done this and what did you use? I am looking at the Powerspark site and am getting confused, why the big difference in price between Bull Motif and Powerspark ( Powermax or Lumenition electro...

Re: Oil Type

Thanks for the replies, they are much appreciated. As my Moggy is in the throes of being "done up" I will no doubt have more bone questions to ask.

Oil Type

Can anyone tell me the oil type for a 1971 Morris traveller (unleaded conversion if this makes a difference)? A quick search brings up 20/50 mineral oil, supermarket brand is ok (no need for expensive oils).

Sorry if the question seems silly but this type of motoring is new to me.

Cheers,

Chris.

Duotone seat covers and door cards

Hi,
Will 1962-1964 duotone seat covers and door cards fit on a 1971 traveller without modification?
Cheers,
