Default Who are the Morris LRC gurus?

One of our club members imported a Morris LRC from The Battlefront Museum a few years back, but has had it stored in his garage since then. Is now moving and has offered to share ownership with me if I can find space for it in my garage...

Who out there are the knowledgeable ones on Morris engines, drivelines and the LRC version?

Any parts dealers with Morris engine and driveline parts you have come across?

This has sort of thrown me a curve from my Carrier project, but I will likely stay with that until it is finished (so he says.... ) Other wise dear wife will hit me over the head with a skillet....

Ian West in our group is probably one of the most knowledgeable person's having owned and operated one for many years. His was found in a barn or similar in basically unissued condition. It still seems to spend a lot of time off the road and engine access is worse than on the Humber version.

Most is standard Morris items but some of the transmission/axles are unique to the vehicle. Quite why production continued until 1945 amazes me and they did not see much use when compared to the Humber.
