Greeting from the USA.
My wife bought me a Morris Minor Traveller last year. I am now finally getting around to starting this project. It will be a bit slow but I plan on being done next summer.

its a 1967 Morris Minor Traveller

Plans are to install a VW ABA 2.0 and full harness from a 98 Golf
Modern Heat and A/C as well as Modern Disk brakes from a VW.
Including Braker booster and master.

Matched up to a 2WD Geo Tracker 5 Speed using an Acme Kit

This past week I pulled the rear wood body off and started stripping the car down to a chassis.

Next week going to finish stripping and figure out what sheet metal I need to order from England.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your project! :D
It certainly looks like you have a fair bit of work ahead of you, but its a nice early traveller to start with! :wink:
Just a word of advice though, be sure to save things like the sliding window catches from the woodwork you have removed as its the little things like that, that are the hardest things to find!! :wink:

Wonderful to see a fellow American restoration. Only 15000 Minors were ever shipped over here -- and, say, 1000 survive in good working condition -- so I'll be most interested to watch your progress!

By the way, if you don't mind, I'd be pleased to see your location...sort of a hobby of mine to map out the remaining US Moggies. But, of course, you don't have to share if you don't want to. :wink:
