Morris Minor Owners Club

Hello. How do the sliding windows go? Was already stripped out/fallen off before I got it. Iv got 8 sliding bits of glass. 4 have got latches on them and 4 haven't. Iv wrongly asumed that only one piece of glass moves each side. Hence the glass but seeing a picture has made me think iv got it wrong.

Could someone please post up a picture or two. Just a little confused.

Thanks alot Steven

Just worry about this slightly as one runner looks smaller than the other. Cant find any clear pictures online or in the books. Obviously the longer channels go on the outer edge. Do the short bits got at the front or back? Tho im sure it'll make sense at the time and I'm probably over thinking it.

The shorter runners do go inboard, all the way back to the rear pillar. There is a metal stop/trim about six inches long that fits over the channel at the other end and holds the end of the runner in place. I don't think I have any pics but I'll have a look.
Ted's all tucked up under his cover (and it's raining) so I'll see if I can get some pics tomorrow.

Thanks panky no rush atall. Just me worrying lol.

Iv got the roll of channelling. Could somebody kindly measure the length of the inner channels for me please? Unless it's obvious. I'm not doing it till next week so no rush.

Hi panky the metal bit you mention that I'm missing one of. Does it attach to the wood that covers the lower channels and what seat catch attaches to?

Sorry for all the questions.

Thanks Steve

Hi Steve. The actual length of the metal piece is 22" and the length of channel leading up to it is 32" (with a bit extra to tuck under the trim.
Pics aren't very good sorry

Thanks that's really helpful. Seems simple with a couple of pictures. So all do 4 pieces of glass have the levers/catches on or just the 2 at the front? Iv just got 8 bits of glass 4 with and 4 without. Really feels like my cars getting somewhere now.

Thanks Steven

Found a picture on ebay. Looks like it is the 4 with the levers on. Thanks. Just need to get the metal bit for the drivers side .

I put another post on explaining - seems to have disapeared

Oh well. Thanks anyway. Very kind of you means alot. Someone 8 miles away has a traveller but im to scared to knock on there door. I rewired part of there house for the previous owners.

I'll take some more pics tomorrow - might even be able to get the car cover off this time

Here you go, a bit clearer in the daylight.









You can see that the rearmost window only opens about four inches



The little slotted bracket for the rearmost shoot bolt is screwed into the inside of the waist rail. Hope these help

Thank you for that. Really needed to those pictures. Just gotta crack on with it. No excuses now!

Cheers Steve
