Are these the same as Minor - I believe they are, but don't hold me to it!

Ian, the ad suggests these are for 1934 10 / 12 hp cars and therefore larger diameter discs, Morris part number for the 10/4 was I believe 50486. The Minor and early Eights were the same, Morris part number 3411 - outer diameter 140mm, centre diameter 50mm. The vendor could check these sizes should anyone be interested in bidding

Be very careful buying 'New Old Stock' couplings - they often go rock hard and are no use to man nor beast! :wink:
Remeber they are supposed to flex! Fit new and forget them! :D

I'd agree entirely with David's comments. New fabric discs in various sizes are available from S.E.S. - http://www.sesparts.freeuk.com/

Not sure of their current price as my Eight has Hardy Spicer U/J's.
