Ahh satisfaction!! after 10years in Morris Minors and a 2year restoration my 1970 van finally started and moved under it's own power!! Still lots of work to do there is a slight problem with the new S/S exhaust not fitting properly to the manifold and front suspension and steering and the whole cargo area but to see it moving gives you such a boost!!
