Does it need to go to Auckland? It could be sent from Christchurch perhaps - it has a big port (in NZ terms). That means the NZ numberplates are handed back to the government and the vehicle is no lo

I'm not sure about the Spitfidget engine, but I do know of people who have fitted a B-series engine & gearbox to their Minor. The Wolseley 1500/Riley 1.5 are Morris Minor floorpans with B series gear

My Morris Isis has completely stock suspension and brakes and I got that up to 95mph (speedo goes up to 100mph). The engine was still pulling well, but I wasn't keen to go quicker - it was revving q

Hi Morris listers, I suspect that there is a problem with the cylinder head on my 1958 Morris Isis so I'm looking for a new one here in New Zealand. What I'm not sure of is: are 2.6 litre and 3 litre

Sounds quite successful already. Indeed! My 2.6L Morris Isis originally had only a single 1 1/2 inch SU... You've put a lot of thought into this, I can tell! Even a 1098 has a 1 1/2 inch as standard

<re: vibration> I get similar with my '57 Oxford - especially braking from over 45mph makes the car judder. I have a suspicion that the RF wheel hub could be unbalanced somehow, possibly even that th

It sounds rather like a Morris J Van. If it has a flathead motor then it is a J, if it has a BMC B series OHV it is a JB van. Otherwise it might be a Morris J2 or J4 - some of them had doors like tha

If it is a MO Oxford (and it sounds like it is) then get in touch with the MO & 6/80 club. They could tell you what year it is pretty accurately. The only puzzling thing from your description is the
