Can we get it running,,,,,,,,DISASTER STRIKES

This is the car that we saved 3 months ago, after trying to get it to run i found it had no compression and the cylinder head was not torqued down so we called it a day....im going to remove the engine and box at llord jacksons workshop in the near future....Thanks for watching

Hello. I'm a subscriber and fan of restoring morris minors. I'm currently restoring a 1968 morris traveller. Do you also supply parts? Im looking for front and rear brake shoes and cylinders, and the master cylinder. Its very difficult here (Ireland) to source supplies.

Great to see the progress with the Moggies. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with the blue one. How's stuff with the Moggie van?

Waiting to get the van into the workshop and on to the ramp

YOUR LOOKS ROUND OTHER WAY ???? MY 60 MINOR IS NEG EARTH ???

[@simonbriggs8139]

All the morris minors came from the factory positive earth but a lot have been swapped over especially if they have had an alternator installed, if you look at the wires on the coil yours will be on the negative side, this old thing is still as it left the factory in 1968
