interesting front screen, are all gpo vans like this?

nice car - my first was an f reg 2 dr in blue, lots of great memories

that's smart - maybe a good design for 2 moggy rear ends.

does sound like a restricted petrol problem, maybe a blocked pipe / filter - I see you have an extra filter so shouldn't be after this point?

hi, Looks like I am going to sell this 4 door but no idea what she is worth yet, the car is original but does have a non transferable number, the doors are the best I have ever seen and the boot lid is like brand new, I have also been told the steering wheel is sought after for its colour and condit...

Thanks for the replies - I didn't think there was so much to changing the unit but I think it sounds like a good thing to do, thanks, steve.

I would give them a call and tell them a date of a rally you are showing the car at to give them a deadline, (@; This is exactly what I did yesterday morning. This morning I phoned again. He's now 1/2 way through the job. :o Amazing. Why does it take phoning someone every morning, pecking at them, ...

I would think most of the suppliers are on the ball and most parts will come from the same manufacturer - I will also be watching this thread as I am about to have a winter working on my car and have been out of the game for yrs so lost touch with the suppliers although looking on the internet most ...

I cant see that a light spray with penetrating oil will hurt - hadn't they used to wrap the springs in an oiled material? or am I thinking of something else. I can see the logic why not to get to much oil on the rubber mouldings, as said above dry springs might dampen the ride.

Thank you for the replies and for the link to the other thread - is there much noticeable difference in the power between the 803 and 948?

Hi,

Might be a long shot but I was wondering if anyone on here knows of a reputable Morris repairer in the Cannock, Stafford or wolves area. I have long lost touch with everyone I knew, thanking you for any replies, steve

shocking, £500 for a gasket I would cut your losses and never return to them but before you do ask for a breakdown of the parts, labour and vat and say your passing it to a solicitor - they should be refunding you not asking for more to repair it.

could the earth need cleaning?

Hi,

I have only ever had 803 engines and 1 1098cc engine car - I was wondering how much difference there is between the 803 and 948 and what other changes are on the engine, does the extra power make much difference to the feel or running of the car? also does the 948 still use the early gearbox?

thanks for the replies - the water pump needs to be replaced and I could do with a service on the carb - i have contacted a supplier but was wondering if anyone on here had the parts before i order them? thanks, steve, i am going to get a convertible but i hope to find one as everyone does with a go...

i have kept my eye on prices for some time now seems you can get a restored car for around 5000 but have seen some for 7 - 8000 depends on the finish, there are a lot of great looking cars about from 1500 - 5000 below this they all seem to need lots of work. - have you a budget in mind? lowlamp on e...
