    Wow just brought back fantastic memories, I ran my 68 two door for twenty years and often fancy owning another.
    When you drive a morris minor it makes you a better driver as you have to anticipate all conditions and act accordingly not molly coddled as you are with modern vehicles.
    Really looking forward to more episodes. Keep up the good work

      Was sad for them to see George leaving but they know that he will be used and he would just deteriate if left 🤓👍

    Hi everyone. George drove home very well the brakes have stopped binding and pull up nice and even.
    I'm going to use George for a few days and make a list of jobs that need doing.
    Thanks for watching 🤓👍

    What a great trip home for George. Thank you for sharing this and it was a pleasure to watch. I really like the sound of the Minor engines. I almost brought one, but brought my Hillman superminx instead. Looking forward to the updates.

      I have had a few classic cars over the years and always end up getting another Morris minor they are great cars to own easy to work on with plenty of parts available.

    Great stuff. I bought my Moggy last summer. She had been standing for 5 years since her last MOT, but had actually been off the road since 2004. The brakes were too far gone to drive her home though.
    The brake light switch is pressure operated (it is behind the radiator grill on the driver's side). If the brake lights fail to operate then you know you have a leaking cylinder.
    Master cylinder is under the driver's carpet. 8 screws retain a cover plate. Remove it so see if the master cylinder has been leaking into the chassis leg.
    Good luck.

      Hi👋if can remember I replaced the master cylinder few years ago.
      He has a faulty brake light on one side its probably going to be wiring.

    my parents bought a 1951 (?) Minor in 1962 voor 200 Dutch guilders, now about 99 Euros.... it was a nice little car

    Great video. Chuffed for you, glad you bought the car back. Drive looked effortless - good going for an old car that has been standing. Nice gesture to give those items to the family - very kind. Inspired me to go out and work on the Moggie again !
