1960 2dr saloon called george after my new born son

Post by dannyj1979 »

i have done many restorations before this is my everyday job but never done a moggy before.this is where is started.
i wanted another project for myself and have always been a fan of the morris minor as there so simple and parts are everywhere you look.so went on the good old ebay and found one for £350 at brigghouse

needs a fair bit of welding in all the normal places but i do alot of welding so did not really mind

Great work, you will be on the road in no time!

Is it clipper blue? One of my favourite colours, a minor really suits it.


Too many Minors so little time.....
