Ratchet Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Greetings to all I’m new to this group but not to MVs. I live and work in a small town in Indiana, USA. I have a growing restoration and repair business for MVs, older Willys, and just this year starting to stock and sell parts. In fact, it’s a customer’s vehicle that brought me to this forum. I’m restoring a 1942 Morris LRC Mark II. Now, lets find out just who knows what this vehicle is! And, I’m looking for parts. Looking forward to conversing with other MVers in far away places.

Hi Ratchet, We are in the same business, don,t worry, I am in England The Morris LRC does have the same engine as the C8 or C4, the 4 cyl around 3.5 litres. Used in civilian Morris Commercial trucks of the period and also the first Nuffield Universal tractors in late '40's, although that will not be much help. I have to say, that Morris parts are not prolific. It is a case of searching out classic vehicle parts specialists in UK. When I did one of these engines in a C4 truck some 25 years ago, parts were found, but not easily. Try this one, not dealt with them for a few years, but he does stock old commercial parts; Classic & Collectors Car Spares, 2 Cocker Lane, Leyland, Lancs.
