Re: New Project
For the original oil I am not sure, but at my company we make our own shock absorbers for weigh scales . Maybe another user knows exact what te original oil was, but I have spend some time by self building and modification from shock absorbers. My '51 Morris Minor needs mineral oil grade 20, except ...

Re: rebuilding two 4A's
When cleaning the metal parts, inside the engine bay, and the front wings, I found this grey colour.
On other cars inside is black, but I have also a car who is inside and outside green...
The grey layer looks like original, from the factory, or am I wrong?

Re: rebuilding two 4A's
Good to know, in that case the one without the bracket is original.
Maybe the previous owner had put him there because of a rotten front, to give more strength..
I do not remove him now, you don't see him when all is on his place.
The other one is also there, and already mounted on his place.

Re: rebuilding two 4A's
I already found a small trick to get a rusted old screw out, take a cheap new screw and a mig welder. One short pulse to connect them and turn it out ;) The biggest question now is the difference between the two, one of the steering columns has a metal strip with 2 holes under the dash, above the pe...

Re: rebuilding two 4A's
By removing the old wood, I see copper and steel screws, what should it be original?

Re: Seen For sale
it is possible to take a car with you as air freight, we are sending also machines by air to other sides from the world.
In that case the height is important, so a big wooden pallet and the wheels inside the car will help.
Putting in a container is cheaper, maybe both together in one?

Re: Bumper jack 4AD
Just look in your area for a Morris Minor Jack, he was in use from 1948 till around 1956, but a lot of people don't want tu use it. For the Morris it is not a nice one because of the place from the jack points. I have just one for my Morris, and am looking for a number 2 and 3 for my own Singer 4A's...

Re: Bumper jack 4AD
I know from pictures, and the Jack from my Morris MM, it looks like the same as that one.
But I have a 4A Singer, so I am not sure about the 4AD one..

Re: Engine Color
Is this the possible color?
This gearbox was not in use since 1968, so it is not far from the production in 1950...

Heritage certificates
I have 2 4A's, both of them not on the road for ages.
One of them has papers, but the year is not correct, the other has only a chassis number and without documents.
To get them with the right information on the road, a Heritage certificate should be helpfull.
Where to get this?

Re: Complete frame
At my both 4A Singers, the chassis number is stamped on the R-side about 10 cm after the front bumper bolt
