Apologies to those who tried to get in touch with Flora regarding the cars in Zimbabwe.
I have tried in vain to get the correct contact details and will post them if I am contacted.

PARTS –

Errol Myers on 011 609 3697 (h) and (b) or 083 267 3360 or errol@magicom.co.za
has manufactured replica plates that can be found on the firewall of your Minor.
These are for the assembly and engine numbers etc.
He can also make the "MORRIS" and "Patents" plates that fit on the engine rocker covers.
It is vital that members should correctly date and identify
their vehicles before getting their plates.

The samples look as they would have been on the cars 60 years ago or even better and it
may be advisable to rub them with a weak engine cleaner to cause them to fade a bit
before applying clear lacquer to them. Otherwise, the authorities will see that they are
replacement plates and then you may get into all sorts of hassles with them.

Morris Minor 1000 parts, rims & tyres available: Ring Albert van Heerden on 082 4555 617.

Dave Smith on 011 869 8629 (h) has new stock of radiator hoses.

For a full set of interior trim, seats, panels etc. in off white.
