Hello, what size are the fuel tank screws I cant seem to find any on ESM
Plenty of self tappers on ebay but not sure of the size.

Looks like I will have to make one then
Thanks for your advice

Hello, where can I buy a repair panel for the rear bottom part of the rear wing?

Thanks for all your advice and pics
A couple more questions before I start to remove the head lining
Do I really need to remove the rear screen?
Do how the cables attach to the support rod ends?

Thanks,
Nothing there at the moment just a hole next to the wire
I was hoping there might be some kind of tensioning device

Hello, Can anyone tell me how the wires securing the head lining are usually held in place
Mine are just loose wires and the new head lining is an unfinished job by the previous owner

Thank you for your advice I'm glad to know its not just me being fussy.
What are your thoughts on fitting a genuine lucas base plate into the powerspark body, would if fit?

Yes sorry I mean 25D.

Wheel bearing sorted thanks.

The hub rotates smoothly with zero axial movement
Perfect!
Thanks for all advice.

Yes I'm trying to keep the costs down at the moment I've only had it a couple of months and theirs loads to do on it.

The angular bearings are the standard for a morris minor, Tapered bearings are the expensive upgrade
