Default Morries

And a shot taken during an engine transplant for the '53 Minor pickup. I paid $40 for it around 1976. Someone had shoehorned a B series and because the motor was too long had put the radiator behind the cab in the rear where there was no airflow. I found a reconditioned Anglia motor which had a lovely sound and much nicer gearbox but the sump sat so close to the ground I cracked it open one day while carrying a refrigerator, fortunately discovering the problem before it was too late, but the engine had to go and in went a motor from a later Morris 1000.
