Morris Minor Owners Club

hey all
ive been a long time lurker on this forum and i thought it was time to get of my rear end and join in.
im 23 from Falkirk and absolutely love classic cars, i am a mechanic to trade but fed up working on boring cars like vectras and mondeos et all

anyone else from the falkirk or surrounding area?

cheers
Gordon

Hi Gordon G and welcome to the forum! You've got a great attitude to cars. Yes, modern cars are boring! As a professional mechanic your views could be very valuable here.

There are, I believe a few Scottish members on here. I go back to Scotland a few times a year myself- not yet in the Minor.

A Minor is a great car to run as a daily driver. They do drive extreemly well, a totally different experience to a modern car. I know my cars quite well, but modern cars are a bit of a mystery to me. A Moggie you can repair everything on them with fairly straightforward tools.

Are you thinking of buying one yourself?

Welcome aboard Gordon and any input you have is most welcome.

i have one which is going through a MAJOR restoration at the moment- its a 1965 3 door in sort of sky blue- to say its a basket case is an understatement.
i seen the one in devon looking for a new home so hopefuly i can get one like that to put on the road as a daily driver

thanks for hte welcomes
G

its a 1965 3 door in sort of sky blue-

That will be either Smoke Grey or Burmuda Blue if its an ex police car.

not sure if it is an ex police car or not
its more blue than grey but its a very pale sky blue, ill try and up load some pics once i know how to do it

Loads of Scottish Minors around - you should have been at Culzean Castle yesterday - last show of the year unfortunately.
