Jeckyl and Hyde

[Moggy]

Hi everyone. I'm the owner of two very different Morries.

The first is Dr Jeckyl. A basically standard '59 ute. The only concessions to today's driving are seat belts, CD player, alternator and alarm system. Everything else is as it came out of the factory. Since I bought it about seven years ago it has been my daily transport and, up until about two years ago, clocked up over 200 miles per week. It has been used to move anything and everything from a full load of hardwood sleepers to a complete lounge suite. It has been a reliable and cheap form of transport.

The second is Mr Hyde. This is a '54 2 door that is the process of being rebuilt. It has a blueprinted Datsun 1200 motor with a Datsun 5 speed close ratio box and an Oxford rear end. Disc brakes are fitted on the front along with telescopic shocks and sway bars front and rear. The bonnet has been louvred and the boot lid modified. Other changes are to move the battery to the boot to give a flat firewall and to remove the quarter glasses from the doors.


At the moment I haven't worked out how to add photos to this post, but I have uploaded some to the gallery section under "Moggy's Morries". If someone can help me I'll insert them in this post.
