    Well done Alex I wouldn't have thought the fan was seized. Good deduction and well done for doing it all with one hand 🖐️

    I love your 2 door Allegro. I had a citron green Allegro Super, that I called "The Green Bogey" the most reliable car I have had pleasure of owning. Alas I sold it on when I purchased a 1963 Humber Hawk Series 3, 17RHU. The number plate is now on a Porsche of some description. Hope your small finger mends.

    Hope your hand heals up soon x Alex.) I also own & drive several classic car's including a 1970 Rover P5B. I'm currently trying to buy back a 1979 T reg facelift Morris marina 1:3 estate in red. That i originally owned in 1990 ) after discovering It's still in existence" I managed to track it down recently and I'm surprised how well, it's kept although having spent long periods off the road at diff periods, In warm dry storage has helped.

    I broke my little finger while playing basketball at school ( 50 + yrs ago ) and all they did was the exact same thing as you and taped the 2 fingers together, no anti biotics, no follow up visit just said keep it like that for 2 weeks , much simpler times .

      @@AlexsassetsAll the 1.8 needs is the manifold and carbs from a MGBGT, mild race cam, kingpins tightened and greased and they’ll give a cortina a run for their money . Admittedly Ford made it easy to upgrade cars up to mid 80s with all their various specs . BL were still stuck with the idea that each brand was exclusive and not a lot was shared when the marina was launched. So Morris was stodgy family car,Triumph sporting cars, Jaguar luxury , MG really only had the MGB which was in production for too long. Should have been replaced mid 70s, not dragged into the mid 80s. Mini was again a car that was dragged on too long.
