Morris Minor Owners Club

I don't have short legs so 'll chuck it out :) - love it :) I used to drive a Moggy police car back in 1972 ish, they used to remove the front passenger seat to make it easier to get prisoners in without hurting their heads ;) I'm just down the road from Cwmbran in Bridgend - just 1 mile off J36. I ...

Afternoon all from a very hot sunny South Wales. I just halled the Moggy out of the long grass brambles! The driver's seat is propped up with a block of wood and 'd be pretty sure it's not going to get an MOT like that! Here's a pic http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/datasafe/Cars%20and%20Other%...

Gotta have some of that. Is that limited mileage?

Hi guys

Just wondering if the forum has a preferred insurer?

SAGA have just turned me down as the reckon my Morris 1000 is to old for them!

Any suggestions?

John

Done, I think! Sorry for that.

Meanwhile, can someone ID the small bulb fitted to the end of the indicator stalk?

I've now got the indicators working but don't know what I did - maybe just fiddling around corrected the fault.

Cheers

Joined the 2 terminals on the back of the dynamo and measured the voltage to battery ground - didn't appear to be any output. Checked a few times with the engine running of course, but nowt. Removed the dynamo again and attempted to undo the two long bolts, one came out fairly easily, the other howe...

Thanks Alex

I'll try that now

Cheers

Hi guys I'll probably be posting a few pleas for help ove the forthcoming weeks as I discover problems. 1970 Morris Minor been left outside for the past 9 months with NIL attention. I decided to check the lights today and discovered none of them are working. Neither is the little bulb at the end of ...

This is the dynamo on mine





Not messed with dynamos in years

Thanks for the reply I put the dynamo back in the car today, got the battery on charge and I'm gonna start it tommorow and check the voltage on the dynamo. If necessary, I'll take it out again and examine the brushes. HOw does one get the brushes out? Probably quite obvious with the dynamo on the be...

Thanks for the tips guys.

Looking forward to getting it roadworthy.

Hi all Thanks for the replies - for some reason I wasn't getting the notification emails! It's 9 months since I posted and the poor old moggy has sat outside the house - dumped! Anyway, I got very annoyed that it had just been dumped and I've decided it's now mine :) The cold wet and the Ariel Atom ...

Yes, I drive it back and for to work each day, even in the rain

Just wondering if anyone knows this car? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v111/datasafe/Cars%20and%20Other%20Stuff/Moggy%201000/Morris1000TUO295J23rdApril20081.jpg My partner purchased it for her son who'd just passed his driving test. As he has no interest in cars, it was a bad choice, this is a c...

Hi guys, This is my first post to the forum so apologies if this has been mentioned before (I did do a quick search)! I wonder whether any of you will be making your way to the Bridgend Classic Car show on the 11th May? I've attended the show for the last 2 years - the 1st year I got sun burnt and l...
