Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi everyone,

I've tried to make a photobucket album of Hetty's progress, but I've never done it before so I hope it's worked!

She finally came home from the workshop today after:

New brake master cylinder
Replacement sill (offside)
Welding to wheel arch (offside)
Replacement rear wings (generously donated by a wonderful MMOC member, Ian)
Numerous bodywork repairs
Total respray (except engine bay which is being done at a later date)
Exterior wood stripped and oiled
Two new tyres
MOT

Still to be done:

New carpets bought but not yet fitted
Replacement chrome trims and wing mirrors (as part of rolling resto)
Alternator to be fitted
Uprate brakes
Interior wood sanded and oiled
And a whole load of other little jobs I haven't even discovered yet

Thanks to everyone for the advice and support so far! Hope the link works for the pictures:

Absolutely gorgeous!! And the Traveller's looking lovely too! Had to say what everyone else is probably thinking!
An excellent job, and, at the risk of offending everyone with a Limeflower Green Morris, what an improvement the Old English White is.
How nice to see a young lady getting on with a job that is supposedly " of the male domain" and sticking in without panicking about breaking a nail! Yes, that sounds stereotypical, but having been a secondary teacher for three and a half decades, sadly it's an attitude amongst young ladies that is becoming increasingly common.
Wonderful job, and I look forward to the wedding pictures, and Miss Cherrypeeks, my Traveller is progressing far more slowly, so if you'd like to lend me a hand............................................?
I have no problem accessing the photobucket album!

Well done, it's looking great, That's not a BMC logo tattooed on your arm is it? If so you've got it bad!

looks champion, really nice job

Absolutely fabulous. Well done. Definitely worth the wait.

Looks lovely Emma

Well done you!
Looks quite amazing, I am not keen on changing car colours, but that was the right move! Enjoy Hetty as much as possible

Thank you everyone!

It's not a BMC logo, but that may be next on my tattoo wish list
