Morris Minor Owners Club

Bit difficult to take new pictures as it's a bit cramped in the garage and I want to get it running and outside for a good clean and re-look.

Thanks for the info ref the registration number, just a coincidence about his name then

But it does have 'tandem' wipers but no keylock on left door? Someone moved the heater 'boost' cable to the dashboard (for convenience?) and routed the cable through the top of the bulkhead, (cable which I need to repair). Will look at the brake drum size on Monday.

Ta, car number is M/AS5 D 1047497

Cheers Alan, will look at the Chassis number again when I get home.

Thanks for that:)

Also afraid that if I get it running I will want it:)

Cheers, I have been trying on and off, (more off). Lost count of the amount of fuel I keep replacing:( Will see if I can find someone more 'in the know'. Like I say, most of the tuning advice starts with "with the engine warm" etc. I think a lot is to do with the carb cables; the choke scr...

Last picture.

More pictures.

Thanks for the answers. Especially about the pictures; I nearly tried 'replying' to myself but chickened out:)

Hi all, I'm looking to sell a moggy 1000 for my mum, but don't know what to ask for it? Dove Grey 1964 with 12209 mileage (not sure if genuine). It was my cousins, who did all the required work underneath years ago. It then went to my Dad,who was a tuner at the Cowley works when they were still in p...

Thanks for that. None of the Youtube vids mentioned that

Thanks for picture instructions Stephen

Hi all,
I need to remove the glove box lining to get to wires behind the dash. On removing the horn press I was confronted with this, and not the nut to remove the steering wheel?
Any hints as to what has happened please?

Did any links to pictures that I posted show up please? Yes, the links are there, but links to external sites are, to be honest, a pain. Because they can disappear in months or years to come and render the topic a bit useless. There's loads of ineffective posts on here dated back in 2010 or so, whe...

Thanks all for all the info:) The car is indeed wired negative Earth, with a warning label stating that. I do know how the positive contacted the heater cable; My fault :( as I fitted a larger (known as good) battery, but the existing leads would not reach the terminals no matter which way I fitted ...

Hi all, Total newbie here. Had a bit of 'an event' the other day :( Involving a live battery cable contacting a cable from the bulkhead, resulting in a lot of burning plastic smoke filling the cabin, mainly from the driver side windscreen heater slot! Whole car now stinks (plus the whole garage) :( ...

Thanks for all that advice I have been 'out of action' for a while so haven't had a chance to do any of that yet.
Slighty different question I need to ask but will create a seperate post for that

Hi all, my first post on here. My cousin Brian bought and started to restore a Moggie. He did all the subframe welding and replacements so the subframe is sound. He unfortuntley died young and the car went to my Dad, who was an 'end of line tuner'; ie 'starter' in Oxford on the Minor (when that role...
