fitting dynamator on Series 5

I have just changed over from having a dead dynamo to a dynamator and having few problems.

How do I wire it in?
Do I still need the regulator box?
Where would be the best place to mount the coil?

Sorry for sounding dumb!

Museum??

Hi, I seem to remember reading, though I could be wrong - quite easily, that there is a museum somewhere in England that has a lot do with Mogs. Am I right, or have I gone off my trolley?

Heat Wave - Air Con??

With the heat waves we experience, and on that applies to the last two occasions of the National, Mogs turn into ovens, it got me thinking, has anyone fitted air con to a standard Mog, and what did they do?

Back when I started to drive, 1989, I owned a 1963 4 door, without out the orange indictors. During the 18mths I owned him, I had no problems with cars 'going up my backside', no accidents at all. I must admit the journeys were only along the A12, A120 and country lanes. I just indicated early, befo...

Car covers

My car sits outside, and there is no prospect of it having an indoor home. Due to the winter coming up and the liability of water getting in (it also has trafficators) I was thinking about getting a protective cover for it. There seem to be a lot on the market and is there anything I should look out...

I would go to local meetings, but I'm not around alot of the weekends, so thought I would post a message. Realised after posting that it should have gone into 'other'. My use of the car is irregular, but can hit long journeys of over 100 / 200miles.

Spares box

I think this is the best place for the question. Could anybody give me a list of essential spares / tool kit I should carry with me, ie new fan belt, spare bulbs, spanner sizes etc. I know it is a simple and probably easily answered question, but I new to owning a morris again. I have a 1961 4 door ...

I have just had to get two new tyres. I was told by Bull Motif that Firestone dont exist anymore, but they did have Bridgestone. Which is what I now have got.
