Morris Minor Owners Club

Very sorry to hear about this devastating loss, i've work with the West Yorkshire Police many years ago when i was a P C for Humberside, somewhere along the line they'll get the scroots that did this, fire doesn't always kill forensics. As regards repairing a fire damaged shell, not only heat but the huge amount of water the Fire Service use will have caused unseen damage, it will have been distorted from the intense heat and then by the intense cooling of the water. Even if it was repaired i now minors rust but as the metal has changed under such heat it will rust even quicker and bubble through in weeks or months rather than years. again so sorry, lets hope you can find a replacment.

Awful thing to happen and I'm terribly sorry for the owner. This happens in France as well - see what happened to the last Citroën 2CV to comme off the assembly line :

The owner, a well known 90 year old French automobile historian, died a few days after learning what had happened.

There are low "creatures" out there everywhere.

Change the word Vandals to "Low life Scum".

Sorry to read about this. I guess the first thing to do is make sure the heat didn't distort and twist the shell. Unfortunately I wouldn't know where to begin!

Do the doors, boot lid and bonnet still open and shut?? measure everything on another Moggie and compare to yours.
