Welcome to the site what about putting up some better pics and letting us know what you had to do to repair your Morris?

Thanks for the welcome folks.
I've had the car for 10 years and finally got round to finishing it in July after working on it for 6 months or so.
The guy I bought the car from had already done all the welding repairs so it was a matter of a new paint job and a complete rebuild from the ground up! It has a 2 litre twin cam five speed box, Ford Fiesta disc brakes all round, a new interior finish with calibra seats, Mini Cooper 130 speedo and Smiths oil and water gauges.

It's being featured in Retro Car Magazine in the New Year.... look out for it!

Here's a link to my car on youtube.

The pics on here and You Tube are good (thanks) and it is great to see another Morris on the road. I might even have think about buying retro cars.
