Yes Alex!
Had to watch this asap after you telling me you had bought this! Love your sense of humour coming across in the video too as you are a funny guy so good on you for letting it show! Can’t wait to see more, Im excited for you!
Thanks so much mate x
Before doing anything, I would get underneath & check the front chassis legs & rear spring hangers . you might find it is more work than expected..
Got my welder assessing to see if its saveble. Hes welded many Moggys up before.
Check the rear hubs for lateral movement. (Backwards and forwards.)
You shouldn't have much movement there, if you have it may indicate that the rear hub is worn out.
I've not found any parts suppliers offering new hubs, only ones that have been checked as serviceable.
Also there is much sensible advice on the Morris Minor owners club forum. You can view the posts, however i'd advise any moggy owner to join the forum. It will cost you nothing. Cheers.👍
Thanks! and will do!
Lovely Jubbly, I think this will be a great project, good luck.
Fingers crossed!
I've had three minors myself, back in the day. This one looks like an easy restoration, not much corrosion (cough) Minors are wonderful cars, you'll have it running in no time..😂
I bought one some years ago and when I lifted the carpet it had a rear floor pan made of old oil cans. I sold it on.
Good luck with the project. They always had SU electric fuel pumps. When I had mine I fitted a hidden switch as an anti-theft device, sometimes forgot I’d switched it off and then panicked when the car would splutter to a halt a few yards down the road !
Wow! I love that car already haha. Good luck with that project. I've always wanted a Minor myself one day. There so full of character. That car is definitely worth saving despite the rust but it should be good fun to get it roadworthy again!👍😎
That spare wheel is good for another 1000 miles, and my brothers moggy has the rear feet vents they're fine 😆 looks like a fun project mate 👍
Lol! My mates already calling me Fred flintstone! :D
@@AllThingsAlex 😆
Very exciting & enjoy
Brilliant. Love a Morris Minor 😀
Haha thank you. It is indeed some project!
Very cool, I'm considering getting one to fix up too. What the hell is wrong with me...
Get it running and drive it. No MOT required. Or maybe you have a conscience ? A great find and looking forward to watching those repairs.
Certainly wont be driving it until its sorted. I'm not that daft!
you can get replacement tie plates in the engine bay from the guy i mentioned alex
sure i was watching that one on ebay 😉, gonna subscribe now👌👌
Awesome thank you!
Best of luck Alex, this is some project!
It's only just dawning on me!
@@AllThingsAlex I think you will get through this. It looks a bit bleak, but the Morris Minor community is huge, and supportive. I think if you reach out to them they will help!
Opens the boot what have we got in here then… I see the ground 😂. To be fair I’ve seen some stupidly rotten Morris minors saved this one ain’t that bad
Shes pretty rough mate!
Can you get 50 year old Jaffa Cakes? Looks ok to me 😳 mot exempt for the win 😂 as you said that’s some work…… excellent maths skills too!
Why thank you ;) I learnt real good lol ;)
VGG !
Haha, you're a brave man!
Very! lol
Unless you have deep pockets or amazing skills, I think you have bought trouble there.
I have a moggy alex! you need any info hit me up mate!
Thank you. Yes been looking into panels allready...
Looks as if you've got your work cut out on this one, Alex!
re clutch and brakes, prob ur master cylinder shot. always get a Lockheed, don't buy cheap, cos they not good quality
Going to take a look tommorrow. Suspect your right.
@@AllThingsAlex i lost all my brakes on my moggy while driving, turns out the seal in the master had blown
