Vintage Minor Register

Looks like it was registered late 1932, but has 1934 season wings (and correct radiator shell for '33 season). Otherwise quite tidy. I'll see if I can get the chassis number.

Getting very close to completion. Nearside door finished, running board on with new 'Morris' rubber, beading on (will be chromed after the Summer Rally) and first rear wing fitted. Also hood frame completed with new ash bow and hood peak. Bonnet and radiator off to swap dynamos. The new hood will al...

It has the original TF 201 lamp on the number plate on the right side of thwe tail and I am planning to fit a pair of Wilcot rear/number plate lamps under the tail. These ...

The date for the Green Man, Thriplow meet has been put back one week - to Sunday 29th April.

Looking forward to seeing some pics of the Minor.

Best regards,

Ian
