Update on the 4-door Spridget [Morris Minor]
When I last posted on my Morris Minor, I had the engine out and the transmission off to Gerard for rebuild and modifications to fit:

Since then I've been busy. Took all of this week off from work and have been spending it out in the garage getting the car back together. All told I've redone the 5-speed conversion with Gerard's kit (including a new clutch), hydraulic clutch conversion (Morris was mechanical), new brake components, added oil pressure/water gauge and tach... been busy!
My new carb should be coming today -- it's the last part I'm waiting for. If all goes well, I should be able to fire the car up next week for the first time in 9 months or so. I've only actually driven the car a couple times, so this is like getting a new car!
