It's been great watching it unfold. Some really good original ideas and careful work Bruce.

I think you've shown some of the so-called professionals a thing or two.

Cheers David

It's a great outcome and you richly deserved the Paul Kelly and the MDU trophy Bruce.

Your workmanship is spot on and you've done some really innovative things,

Have a safe trip Graham, we're looking forward to seeing you all in the Canberra region.

Cheers

There’ll be a food vendor and coffee van on site, plus a great playground for the kids. And the town centre is just a few metres away.

I guess the question is whether your booster will lock the rear wheels unnecessarily or prematurely, the rear being lighter than the front. This would seem to affect the amount of pedal you can use to ...

Looking forward to seeing the finished article. It sounds as though you're cracking along.

Very sorry we won't see you in Queanbeyan, John, but quite understand the dilemma created by the anniversary occurring on the same weekend.

Hey Nick.

Looking pretty schmick. Going to bring him east in September??

Very Happy

And good news! The touring club is planning a run from Victor Harbor in SA to Canberra, arriving in time for this year's National Rally. Details of accommodation and route being settled at the moment.

G'day and welcome,

Nice wheels. As they've said, plenty of assistance here.

Cheers,

David

Keep the cards and letters coming in, but even more importantly, time to get registered!

Seriously, registrations for the rally, in the Canberra region from 21-23 September, are coming in steadily. ...

Hi Bill,

Credit where credit's due, they were actually cut and pasted from Don's post on the earlier thread, so Don is the expert here. I did it once, probably following Don's earlier advice!

Sounds like an interesting project. There's room for all sorts and tastes in the MM community.

Good luck with it, post some pics, soon.

G'day Troy,

Welcome to the forum. Lots of friendly, commercial-free advice here!

Looking forward to seeing you in Canberra in September!

Cheers

The coil was on top of the generator in my SII-with-a-948-motor but for ease, I moved it to the mudguard when I fitted an alternator. Doesn't seem to be an issue there, but always happy to take advice ...

Time to get down to business!

It’s on, for sure!

Thanks to a strong response rate, we’re pressing ahead with organising the Morris Minor Clubs of Australia 19th National Rally and a celebration ...

That sounds interesting!! I'll talk to you in the next couple of days. Gotta heap on right now!

The definitive answer, I've had time to take a closer look at the drums, life has been hectic. They're obviously off an early Datsun.

As with so many Datsun things from that time, they're a knock ...

Great news, John!

The Torana discs came off one of my cars and had the original pizza cutter wheels. So back to the drawing board. Bit of a lot of a nuisance for Rod.

Given the short lead up, responses by the end of March would be in time. The club needs to be sure of a critical mass before it continues. So responses to the email address would help secure the event ...

Bloody bad luck, John. As you say, sh*t happens.
