tooSavvy Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 F/G wings.... vs: new steel. ?? IMO 'its a car' = brumm, brumm. *I missed the opportunity to purchase an ex-mail van (for that rubber wing elite) having to settle for a Yellow phones one :/ Uncle Jimmy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mally Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 True, but a Minor with F/G wings will never be worth the same as steel.Possibly less than half in my estimation.Therefore I could never justify the work unless it was my lifetime car.Which in my case would be quite possible Vince70 and tooSavvy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercrocker Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Wings are only mudguards and lamp mountings on a Minor. Every single panel available on the market appears to be made of pre-rusting Chinese off-cuts. Fibreglass is not an inferior choice in this application.

Tickman Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 I have been doing some bits to the Minor today and to keep things all together it is in 'My stuff' thread, this should take you to the correct post. http://autoshite.com/topic/22526-my-stuff-prepping-the-minor-for-sale-quite-involved/page-16?do=findComment&comment=1486979 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Fiats Sake Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I live on a hill, both approaches are long and lingering climbs, would the minor be able to cope and at least go as fast as the 15-20 mph buses and HGV's manage? Seriously looking for minor with such tax and mot status as a forever car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17-Coffees Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I've been tempted with the idea of a proper classic for a while, more so since I now have a garage and space to do work. And Minors have been high on the list. I'm very, VERY tempted. Like the idea of having a drivable, but work in progress resto! I'll need to think it over first though, but would a viewing next weekend be okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorniteIdentity Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Who bought this? We were at Bolnhurst Vintage and Country Fayre over the weekend and I asked my wife about Moggy's. She likes them, as they look like a classic car should. ie not a Sierra. I took that as a green light to buy one, see!

Glad it was kept on here! I was worried that we'd be infiltrated and it had sold to an outsider! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
