I have just registered and paid my membership fee so thought I should say hello here.
I have wanted a MM for many years now, my parents had a couple when I was very young but my aunties MM was probably the car that sowed the seed for me as it were when i was 6/7 years old and got to travel in the back.
So, last month I bought my first Morris Minor, a 1960 4-door. Currently the car is in storage and I have yet to actually see it but that's about to change as this weekend I am heading up to Blackpool where it is currently hibernating.
First job is to carry out a full assessment and note any missing parts and work required. This will be the first time I have seen it/him/her (yet undecided!) as a trusted friend actually made the purchase and collected on my behalf.
The colour (and finish) is terrible, just to forewarn you!
Plans are to initially get it back to a roadworthy condition and then improve and modify when it is back up to an acceptable standard.
On Tuesday my partner and I attended the first Peterborough meet where we were made to feel very welcome. It was that meet that has encouraged me to become a fully paid up member and also offer to help Chris with any assistance he might need in forming the Peterborough region.
Anyway, i have included a couple of pictures so you can see what we are dealing with.
Any initial thoughts or opinions (good or bad) gratefully received![frame]
