  • What do you think of this car being my first car? Also, are the parts rare at all? Thanks :)

  • @MrSup2121 They make a fantastic first car. Easy to insure, economical and fun to drive!

    Most of the mechanical parts can be found from either a Mini or MG specialist, as they share so many standard parts! There are a couple of companies which supply all the unique parts too for reasonable prices. Have a google for 'young guns classics' and join the forum there. I'm 21 now and still use mine most days!

  • Got one exaclty like it ! =]

    Can't wait to get my license so i could drive it (:

  • @BaldwinU

    Fantastic! I'm a member of a forum for young classic enthusiasts, I'm 20 myself. We'd love to have you posting, so we can see your 1100! If you google young guns classics you should find us.

  • Was the 1100 a 4-speed?

  • @sheps999

    It was yes, you'd do well to get a 5 speed in 1964, that was reserved for supercars for another few years!

  • This was Issigonis's last great design in my opinion,up there with the Minor and Mini.

  • Not as sought after as either, thankfully! Always go for the underdog :)

  • I must say your tune up has worked wonders,the acceleration is really impressive!

  • @MGBGT1800 Thanks for your input, i just bought my Morris 1100 today for $550. It needs a fair bit of work but that doesn't matter because i still have a year and a half until i get my p plates.But restoring it will be half the fun. Once again, Thanks :)

  • my father had one of these in the sixties, he was a traveling salesman, he literealy worked it to death, they were value for money..

  • well made video !

  • I have a couple of Rover P4's & a 57 Dodge Coronet, but I'm an ol' fella in my mid 60's & been on the classic car scene 22 years now. It's really nice to see the youngsters taking an interest in these cars. We could do with as many as we can get! Those 1100/1300's were nice cars. Keep up the good work!

  • I love the strip speedo :) Nice car, I'm jealous!
