Austin Morris BMC

Hi transporter man, as I have mentioned before on the Transporter thread, I had a brand new BMC FJ with Carrimore 6 car (the coupling position and fore/aft depth of the cab allowed 2 Minx and an Imp on the bottom deck without a well) on Progressive when that cab was first introduced 1964ish, compared to the previous motors I’d had, the cab was roomy and comfortable, a willing engine 5.7 if I remember rightly. The downside was the downtime, man that wagon broke down a lot, mostly fuel pump throttle linkage and injector pipe problems, last straw was a broken halfshaft. Never saw it again,out of warranty I heard they put a Comet 400 in it, I was now the happy driver of a new Leyland Comet with 7car Carrimore and no downtime.
I have quite a few Morris, Austin and BMC pics which I will sort and post.
Oily
