Morris Minor Owners Club

obviously know nothing about real cars then

Just putting my 2 cents in. Have only had my Moggie for about a month (1950 lowlight) and bought it as my daily driver. Have had a few pangs of guilt that at its age it should be resting comfortably and taking the odd weekend outing instead of being used everyday to get me to and from work. BUT........

Just a quick update. Squeak is now gone (one of the back brake pads had been put on back to front). Had everything else checked over, oil, clutch, electricals, etc. Borris is a happy boy now.. has not even complained about his daily trip up the hill to get home, even with the temperature sitting on ...

Think I need to get some seatbelts fitted ....still find myself trying to reach for the belt everytime I get in my Morrie

Do you have enough seat belts in your Morrie to accomodate 5 cats and a dog???

Hahahah...I love it. I have two greyhounds, one of which loves to relocate things in the house..generally out on the back lawn. If something is missing ..ask the dog!

LOL...that is sooo cute......well...when its not on my couch at least

I think I have!!! But Borris the Morris seems to be handling it ok still getting me up those hills every to get home

Ummm......am living in the driest state in the driest continent on earth....no...no snow...lol...although it has been seen here once or twice...perhaps an inch on the top of the hills....maybe lasting an hour or two :) We are currently going through our worst heat wave on record here...looks like ma...

Might have to make the pig a sweater at this rate!

Will gladly knit the pig a sweater if you send some snow

Would give anything to be lying in the snow right now Middle of a heat wave here

Oh and just to make everyone say wow - this is in the back of another car (been there a lot of years) - i have first dibs on it, it's in my mind to rebuild and possibly put into a mog :lol: http://www.orkney.info/mog/frank/6.jpg [/quote] ummm...OK ...I'm saying wow!! LOL have no idea what that is

Have had some pretty good feedback about this bloke....so will see what happens. Think my best bet is to join the local club and get advice from there. Maybe if I put on a deep voice and pretend to be a man I wont get ripped off...lol

Hi JJ,

I have a 1950 lowlight which was also a CKD chassis number 50467 which is stamped on the chassis as well as the plate

OK...thanks to everyone....but I have discovered I am a closest blonde when it comes to cars LOL....have it booked in with a mechanic next week to give it the once over

Or perhaps I am just thrashing mine

Yeh, can be a bit slow. I do my best to avoid the steep hills during the rush. I can only manage second up some parts of old belair road. I reccon I can pull third all the way up the new road though. I can manage to get up Flagstaff Hill road in third gear as long as I get a good speed going before...

Not a member of the club as yet. I did phone to get some information sent out to me, but as yet have not seen anything.
As to your previous question about getting up the hill... it can be a little slow!! You should know all about that living where you do too!!

oh..by the way....any pics of your car on here Matt?

Knitty, I reccon I saw you yesterday driving along chandlers hill road. I'm guessing it was you as I dont supppose there are many MM's in your colour about these days. I'm in Blackwood. Where abouts are you? I recon it would be a slow journey back up the hill in the MM? Cheers, Matt Hi Matt, Guess ...
