Hi, names vin and a bit of a freak when it comes to my type of car, this 1952 morris oxford m.o has been my dads since 1972 when he put an 1800cc mg drive train, fast forward to today and this is where its at.

cheers vin.

So that's the Jaguar transmission tunnel and front seats going in the Morris. Because of the length of the engine/transmission, are you losing the Morris rear seat space?

The car was going to run 12x15 wheels with 29x12.5x15 tyres so the rear chassis is where the seats are but then I bought the 18x9.5 cragars, might put a cushion in the rear for a third passenger and a pair or hand grips.

cheers vin,

The build from start is here, I thought it best to start from the jag power.

Got a couple of hours in today as it has just been to hot for workshop the last few weeks, front tubs all made and welded.
Going to run some beads in them tomorrow as i need two people and i was on my own today. I need these to mount all the jag electrics away from harms way








cheers vin
