Morris Minor Owners Club

Ok Pom, Thanks for letting me know "and it was done with the most possible taste"....

Alan

Here is a question for you, if the cover on the brake servo has the holes out of alignment will i be ok to drill more?

Alan

No ones going to stick their neck out on that one, without knowing more details.

I never knew that about the spare wheel clamp! Learn something new every day. Now....cover on the brake servo..... does your car have a brake servo (never a factory fitment..) ? Don't drill any holes meantime till we sort this one out....pictures urgently please!

".....any Minor owner who's fitted an external sunvisor, headlamp peaks,a
brake servo, a non-BMC engine, wooden gear knob, anyone who mentally
stimulated by reality/celebrity culture,anyone who cannot read "The Sun"
within 10mins, anyone who eats meals using just a fork, anyone who sneezes
without covering their face....we'll round them up,put them in a field....

and BOMB the.......

I suspect we may be talking about the master cylinder cover plate in the front rh floor. To be fair to Alan, he has told us English isn't his first language - and if he is conversing on a daily basis with the indigenous population of Sunderland he is at a double disadvantage.

Gracias Mark!! Usted me hizo reir mucho!!

Alan

Ok Thank you BMC ill post pictures in the morning again I really appreciate your helpfulness.

Kind regards

Alan

Mark, I think you may have worked out what we couldn't! If that's the case then realigning the holes in the cover plate (if needed) would be ok.

Phil, I found this item on ebay 171219466232 is it a good price or to expensive.... its the spare wheel clamp £14.95

I hope you dont mind me asking...again!!

Alan

Don't waste money on it, It's nearly £20 !!!!! These can be picked up for next to nothing and your spare wheel won't fall out meantime...

OK thank you BMC, I will save my money...

where can I buy cheap??

Alan

Ask in the Wanted section! Or attend an 'autojumble' - it's surely not a priority for you at the moment.......

No the main this is to finish the welding and then get the wood replaced but its very difficult when my money is little...

I have bought this one small peace foot rail for 30£ item number 111440699939 on ebay still not paid for, and I also have new doors 150£ for two the doors is a good price... you agree??

Alan

It's really up to you - personally - I think you are crazy paying that amount for a wee bit of timber...and the doors are also crazy expensive..... I'm sure you could pick up second hand doors for a LOT less.... If cash is rationed...concentrate on the essentials - and always ask on here for what you need. There are many generous people on here, who may have just the part you need going spare - and be willing to sell you it for a notional (or even FREE!) sum of money. You won't know if you don't ask!

The big problem is how to ask and where and who, every wooden part needs replacing...

do you mind if I add you to my helpful friends list.
