My father restored a Morris Minor Traveller in 1985 and it is in still excellent condition,and I do not think he spent anything like that sort of money.

There is a full woodkit on Ebay at the moment

That looks like a lot of work ... looking forward to seeing your work, please keep us updated!

better to repair rust damage as a crashed Morris, i know now
All the parts are available, and welding complete parts is not a big issue.
It looks like the previous restoration was done with only small parts of iron, not the best way when you forget the rust prevent.

not good

Quite a few around like that sadly.

I am speechless sad to think that it was only in 1996 that a life savings was spent on what was to be a member of the family for years ahead speechless

the last work was done on the car in 2000 wiper motor /s,rack and a heated rear screen then was parked up mid 2001 till I got it , yes its was a shame but soon to have a new life soon

Regardless of WHEN the work was undertaken, the quality of this work is attrocious!

I would certainly contact the company responsible, requesting whether they find the standard
of renovation satisfactory.

some of the welding and patch work was a joke and some stuck on with filler god im doing a better job and ive been away from it for over 20 years but must say the rest of all the welding is spot on thank god

For 9 bags of sand I'd expect the floorpans to look fresh off the production line!

Unless people complain, this level of kraftmahnshipp Modwill continue.

Mods will hunt me down and force me to listen to the entire back catalogue of The Darts if I add anything further.
