Hi, i have just bought a morris traveller after waiting 30 years!!!!! It is having its MOT done at the moment.
My question is, can anyone reccomend someone near me (forest of dean, gloucestershire) who can do some restoration for me, it has been badly filled on the rear wood part, and will need the paintwork looking at. its nothing major just tidying up. But i want her to look her best.
sue :D

Welcome to the world of Minor ownership. I hope the MOT is being done by the person selling you the car! I urge folks to never buy a Minor unless it has a very recent MOT. Can't help with resto in your area - but I'm sure someone who knows will be along shortly. Hope the MOT goes well.......

try oxford minorparts (in the cotswolds)
he is a very helpful, honest and hnowledgeable gentleman (richard plant), and will either be able to take the project on, or advise you who might be able to if he's booked up.
