Christmas present from the wife
Look what was hiding in the snow ...
A present from the wife this Christmas ...
I have named him Albert
Quick inspection reveals Albert suffers with 'MM disorder' (Metal Mouse)? RUST big time.
First thoughts ... Albert may become a donor car for my other Morris car, Vera
Albert is an A reg and Vera is a J reg, wondering are the parts interchangeable?
Picture of Vera to follow, will keep you updated <br><br>

Rust is rarely terminal! However in sever cases it takes a lot of repairing..

Albert
Many thanks for all your concern regarding Albert.
However, on inspection, Albert suffered a major defect from one side of the car to the other amongst other major areas
To repair Albert, he would have needed to be put on some kind of a jig in order to allow the replacement of some of his main chassis parts.
The decision was made Albert has become a donor car for my other Morris
May Albert rest in peace
