Just picked up today the new addition to the fleet-Martha the 1968 Morris Minor 1000 has arrived! Not quite the classic British E Type Carolyn expected, but it's a reliable, easy to repair, piece of motoring history-I worked on Moggy vans in a job years ago and am amazed how easy they are to drive. Stored in a shed for 20 years then recommisioned with a bit of welding and a godawful respray it was mobile up till 2 years ago before being bought as a project by an enthusiast who sadly was unable to carry on with the restoration.
Most of it is replacing wings and the boot, got cheap on eBay, and a decent paint job. Should be done by Spring next year! (that's the plan unless Ol'Stainless has any upsets!)
