Morris Minor side Windows

Post by martylemoo »

Hi,
When i was at the Isle of Wight Morris minor rally i noticed a Convertible with removable rear side windows. Does anyone know if this was a kit available to buy or would this have been a custom made item? Any help would be much appreciated as i am thinking of making a way to do this myself.
Thanks
Martyn

The very early convertible (actually called a tourer) - of the Series MM variety had removable side windows. I can't recally if it changed at the series II or 1000 switch (off the top of my head) but, it's one of them.

its not to difficult to remove the later convertables side windows either.
but i wouldnt say that it was "quick release".
couple of screws and 2 slightly awkward bolts and it off.
