Morris Minor Owners Club

"Why do the Poms drink warm beer?" "Because they all own Lucas refridgerators!" Well tell them to stop trying to export that crappy fosters over here then :lol: :lol: :lol: Yes, you're right, that Fosters is awful stuff....just like fizzy sugar water ! Strangely, out in Australi...

Hi Colin.........the spars for your dinghy would not present too much of a problem in that they would sit on the floor underneath vehicles, and providing they were well wrapped I can't see any damage occuring. A 40ft. container is actually 39ft. 6ins long inside, and the width is 7ft.6ins as the wal...

Hi Moggers ! Many thanks indeed to all who took the trouble to answer my problems with my indicators and fuel pump! The indicator problem was, as many suggested, caused by the stalk assembly. Having removed the steering wheel and the stalk shroud you are confronted by a mass of little bits of white ...

My 1968 Morris Minor had recently undergone a major £5000 restoration before I bought it, but it has been plagued by so many annoying problems that I feel like getting rid of it and buying something reliable like a Ford ! To be fair I've managed to fix most things but I'm stuck on this electrical o...
