Morris Minor Owners Club

Can this rusty old sign really be worth £500 ? I see it's being sold by 'sparesman' - so is that on behalf of the MMOC funds ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LARGE-VINTAGE ... 5b0740d45b

Unbelievable, I cant help but think I could make a couple of templates to achieve the same effect, 2ft dia pieces of circular plate steel cant be that difficult to get.
Thinking cap on.

no roy he says its from his personal collection......

@ thouable - I bet they would sell well! Plastic overlay on metal disc, if the cost was a bit less than £500....
@ samurai - I thought 'sparesman' collected parts donated (or sold at 'garage clearance' prices ) to the club and sold them on for the club?

It's not a "part" though is it?
You can already get copies of this sort of sign and that is what they will always be, just copies.
Is it worth £500 ? Time will tell.

I guess it's worth whatever someone will pay for it.

Where can I get a copy ?? Would look great on my garage door - and a similar one for my TR7 on the other door too ! Can you point me to a link please??

Here's a cheaper one, make a nice lamp

I saw the copy for 20£ on ebay not that long ago....

The seller of the 500£ sign doesnt have that many MM bits a bit disappointing.

Don't stop there, how about your own full size reproduction petrol pump?

I would love it.... but the 'authorities'.. would think otherwise, I'm sure.....

I bought one of those £20 Morris Sales & Service signs of Ebay a few months back, looks great on my workshop door

Be brilliant if it pumped beer

The 'authority' would be even less impressed.

Club regalia used to sell a small enamel morris sign about 10' or so but I dont see it listed any longer, perhaps they have sold out. I have one on the inside of the side door of the garage!
