Morris Minor Owners Club

Seen a very nice cream convetible or tourer a couple of times going through the village - I would very much like to make contact with the owner.

I know this subject has been covered a number of times but one of my front dampers has just started to leak - car last used a week ago and no leakage as I always check under bonnet after a run. However one is now leaking and I am wondering if this heat has caused some expansion and led to a possibly...

I need to replace a quarterlight catch pin/rivet but cannot find any supplies - the VW Beetle and campers ones are way too small although some claim they are good replacements?

Trying to find wiring diagram for my 1967 1000 with alternator but unable to upload them?

These have a lot of dirt between the outer clear cover and the internal amber insert - they seem to want to come out but get stuck - gentle levering with flat edge doesnt work and dont want to crack them - any ideas (other than buy new!)

Found picture of extra instruments on panel which I am trying to achieve - question - how to fit the top centre screw of the original housing? Sorry if using wrong mechanism for asking but new to all this

Thats great - dont have to worry about fixing them.

Save me searching 107 pages (got to 20 then eyes gave up! - search engine could not find anything) The doors will not stay open on the check bars - interiors seem to be very loose

Thanks for all the information - now seriously thinking about a new loom - is it a difficult or complex job? It all looks quite crowded behind the speedometer

Keys did not fit but I kept the San Francisco keyring! The window glass has the 2 strips fitted and in good condition - the ones I found are not long enough so suspect they may have been the old 'bump stops'? Got a couple of small issues to sort out but under bonnet has been sprayed with something a...

Many thanks - it has given me some useful ideas about how to approach it. Good to know ther is a lot of space to play with

Just found an old registration document - shows a Ms Bellamy owned it from 2010 (it was restored in 2012) up to about 2024/25 and I think a club member. Would quite like to know what the restoration entailed and who carried it out - suspect it was done in Northampton area.

Many thanks - just looked at metal lip where window glass comes down and no seals or buffers just a small bit of what looks like old string! I guess thats where they come from so will get something to replace them.

Newbie with quite a few questions many answers I have found on this message board - a really great resource. Had car for a few weeks and got caught in the rain a few days ago - pleased that there were no visible leaks. 2 days ago found one of the door cards bulging at base so quickly removed both wh...

One question - how to secure the insert to the lip?

Many thanks - sounds like a plan!

Thanks Bill, I intend to fill in the trim with aluminium - trim is held in with 3 screws - 2 at bottom and one at top centre - if I fix the filler onto the back of the trim how do I access the top bracket? Hopefully picture is included! Also not sure why I am shown as not being a member?
thanks
Adian

New to ownership and have seen pictures of panels fitted in front of driver for instruments etc. I can see how to fill in the space but how to you refit the top centre bracket retaining screw ?

Hi Stephen,
Many thanks for the reply and information which I will certainly act upon. Will look at engine number when it stops raining!
Only got a couple of pictures so far.
Will be going to Beaulie on Sunday but not in Minor as it has a brake fluid leak.
Regards
Adrian

Just taken ownership of converted 1968 Morris 1000 and was wondering if any light could be thrown on it other that what I already have. It was converted in about 1988 by Minorite UK of Leicester, then in 2012 it was restored possibly in Northampton area at 61594 miles when odometer was reset. A lady...
