Inhaltsangabe
Original Morris Minor is the essential companion to these delightful cars. Its aim is to reveal, in words and color photographs, how the many versions of the Minor – from early ‘low-headlamp’ 918cc saloon to late 1098cc traveler – altered in detail through the course of production. An amazing number of specification changes, large and small, occurred over the years. The completely authentic specification which the most discerning enthusiasts now demand can be elusive because so many Minors have been altered over the years, often by impecunious owners trying simply to keep aging cars on the road for minimum cost. But help is at hand in Original Morris Minor for all owners, restorers and enthusiasts who want a bible on originality. Drawing from factory production records, parts lists and catalogs, as well as the accumulated knowledge of respected restorers and dedicated enthusiasts, this book provides the most exhaustive production survey of the Morris Minor ever published. Accompanying the authoritative text are over 250 specially commissioned color photographs showing every permutation of Morris Minor specification in remarkable detail.

Original Morris Minor - The Restorers Guide to all Saloon Tourer-Convertable Traveller and Light Commercial Models
Anbieter: Crappy Old Books, Barry, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Hardback. Zustand: Good. There was a time when British motorists wanted nothing more extravagant than a dependable little car, a comfortable seat and the reassuring knowledge that their vehicle might actually start on a damp Monday morning. Enter the Morris Minor, a cheerful, rounded creation that became one of Britain?s most beloved automotive institutions, proving that modest horsepower, sensible engineering and a face resembling a permanently surprised owl could win the affection of an entire nation. In Original Morris Minor ? The Restorer?s Guide to All Saloon, Tourer-Convertible, Traveller and Light Commercial Models (2007), Ray Newell explores the wonderfully detailed world of Morris Minor originality. Published by Herridge and Sons, this specialist reference book examines the factory specifications, finishes, fittings and variations that distinguish the numerous versions of Britain?s celebrated small car. Introduced in 1948 and designed under the direction of Alec Issigonis, the Morris Minor brought relatively advanced engineering and practical motoring to a generation of British families. Its independent front suspension, distinctive styling and remarkable longevity helped establish it as a familiar presence on Britain?s roads, from suburban streets to rural lanes where its modest engine could be heard approaching considerably before it arrived. Over the years, the Minor appeared in an assortment of appealing forms. The saloon offered dependable family transport, the convertible provided open-air motoring for those sufficiently optimistic about the British climate, and the Traveller combined practical versatility with its famous timber-framed rear bodywork. Meanwhile, vans and pickups undertook the less glamorous business of delivering goods, carrying tools and earning an honest living. Newell?s guide examines the details that matter enormously to dedicated restorers, from correct trim and paint finishes to mechanical specifications and the subtle changes introduced throughout production. To the casual observer, two Morris Minors may appear virtually identical. To the committed enthusiast, however, an incorrect dashboard switch or inappropriate piece of upholstery can provoke an expression normally reserved for discovering a serious structural defect. Naturally, the pursuit of absolute originality can become a magnificent obsession. A car purchased as a straightforward restoration project may gradually consume entire weekends, substantial quantities of money and every available corner of the family garage. A seemingly innocent search for a correct period fitting can develop into correspondence with specialists across three counties and a lengthy discussion about what constitutes authentic factory equipment. Yet preserving these details is precisely what makes such a guide valuable. The Morris Minor represents an important chapter in British motoring history, and careful restoration ensures that surviving examples retain the character that made them so popular. Condition: Good. This is a previously owned copy dating from 2007, showing ordinary signs of age and handling. Unlike a neglected Morris Minor, it requires no replacement sills, timber treatment, welding or investigation into suspicious bubbling around the wheel arches. Published by Herridge and Sons in 2007. ISBN: 9781906133030. Offered by Crappy Old Books , where we admire the determination of classic car restorers to spend thousands of pounds returning modest family vehicles to precisely the condition in which they originally cost a few hundred. An excellent addition to any collection of Morris Minor literature, classic British motoring history or specialist restoration reference books. Particularly recommended for enthusiasts who understand that restoring a Morris Minor is not simply about making an old car roadworthy, but ensuring that every last fitting is correct before driving it twenty miles to a village show and discussing those fittings for the rest of the afternoon.
