Hi Guys&Gals,
Does anyone know where i might find a Rear Main Journal Flange for a
1929 ohc Morris Minor.
It's the original parallel type with a keyway. In 1930 they improved
the design and made them with a tapered flange which never wore out,
but i need the earlier type (which does, even though it took nearly 80
years!)
Hope to hear from someone soon
All the best for 09
Keith.

Have you tried the MG Owners Club? I'm pretty sure the early Midgets used
the same engine and there's probably more MGs left than Minors.

In October at a swap meet there was a chap who had heaps of Morris 8 and
12 bits all brand new including crankshafts, he just wanted to get rid
of the stuff to clear his shed as he was moving house. Not sure now what
car he had but were all his spares accumulated over the years.

I bought 4 door catches for a Morris Minor 1000 '57 for 2 bucks. There
was not much on the other stuff either.
