Thanks for the responses. Most welcome friendly site.
I am in Nanaimo, a beer bottles throw from Departure ferry.

I have a Morris Traveller not the Minor but my aunt had a 59 Minor convertible and did a lot of fishing with her when I was 15 behind Peachland. Would go anywhere!!!

Welcome from NS!

I inherited some Whitworth tools my father used on the family Morrises, suddenly they became useful to me when I acquired a Myford!

Lots of experience around here installing DROs if any advice is needed.

Welcome to the forum. Enjoy!
My first car was a 1960 Morris Minor 1000
A couple of years later, I luckily landed a beauty- a 5 year old Austin Vanden Plas Princess.

Another southern welcome.

I wonder what happened to all the Minors that advertised "Rent-A-Wreck"?

What model of Traveller do you have? The woodies always attract lots of attention.

Welcome.

Welcome from Peachland old buddy. Once you get into the home machining hobby, you will not have much time to work on your Minis. This is addictive. Have fun.
