Morris Minor Owners Club

I'm rebuilding the loading bay of my 69 traveller, including the grey vinyl covering for the first time since we had the car.

I've looked in Ray Newell's Original Morris Minor & in Morris Minor-the world's Supreme Small Car by Paul Skilleter & neither have a good clear photograph showing the rear loading bay of a late traveller.

I'd be very grateful if someone here could either post one up or pm/email me one

cheers,
Neil

ps needs to be a late one, say post 67, as I believe some earlier ones didn't have the grey covering.....

Here's my 1963 one. It does have a grey textured vinyl covering:

Hi Neil I have just done my 68's load bay area Floor including the covering send me a PM with exactly what you need photo's of as I have floor in or out, with & without coverings.

Thanks Alex, however there are slight differences between yours and mine-yours doesn't have the grey vinyl on the back of the seat for instance, also only 2 aluminium bars on the floor.

Neil

Hi Neil I think you are looking at the photo's incorrectly as Alex does have the covering on the rear of the seat it's in the down position I think you are looking at the upturned seat base by mistake and his load bay shows all 7 alloy strips 4 on the load bay and 3 on the seat backrest, however his armrest sections are different to the later cars.

You're right, just noticed the seat in folded down!

cheers Neil

Have a look in Bodywork section,'Travellr Boot Load Area' Feb this year

On the same subject can someone post a photo of the lock mechanism on the drivers rear door as my latch appears to be bent inwards, I don't mean the verticle rod as I know that's supposed to be curved at the bottom to help pull everything into place against the rubber seals.

Kevin,
I will send you some pics tomorrow.
Cheers Neil

Thanks Neil
