Re: Download Minor matters?

They are in the members only section, so not available to non-members. The club doesn't appear to sell back issues, probably because the print run is slightly above the membership total, which means there are few spare. Even if all the back issues were available on a paid for cd it wold be useful. r...

Triumph 1500?

a friend who works at a garage says they have an Austin Healy in for some work, including an engine change. he has been told it has a Triumph 1500 engine and box and wondered if they would fit my Minor. i have asked for more details.
Will they fit?

GPO greatcoat

i have a GPO greatcoat that i purchased in 1985, when i was a student, that i was thinking of selling on ebay, but thought it might be of interest to the owner of a ex-GPO minor. i bought it new and unissued, in london, in autumn 1985 and hardly wore it as most of the time i used the tube.

I am hoping to persuade him to remove all the spares, on a trailer and take them somewhere to sell. are there any Minor meets near to Hereford?

it is sort of, but i think the suspension and steering needs some work. if you look at the photos it is automatic too.

Re: Cache of vehicles

Hi, It looks like the whole lot wants pulling out and sorting into some kind of order. The vehicles are what they are but there seems to be a whole load of spares in there too, some of which may prove very useful and could have a value to someone, other items might be fit only for scrap. The other ...

What are you going with that top? Do you have the same vehicle where you can install it?
it was just there and as i hadn't seen a pick up rear top like it i wondered about it.
