No, it wouldn't be Oz, and this is where your whole argument goes down the toilet :) "Mowog" has never been defined as anything specific. *Some* say it stood for Morris Wolseley Garages, some say it meant Morris Wolseley MG, while others have different ideas. The point being that what it may originally have stood for was completely irrelevant at the time of the Mini as it ceased to be a going concern when BMC was incorporated in 1952. From that point on, "Mowog" existed as *nothing* other than a foundry stamp, and the theory is that it continued as the traditional stamp at the old Morris foundry partly for sentimental reasons, but mainly because it was easier to do than the BMC "Rosette" that was the company's symbol at the time. "Mowog" was never a "tuning house" for BMC at any time, despite your claims. > Planning on shifting a goalpost Nod? Maybe initiate a little diversion? That's pretty funny coming from a guy who doesn't even know when the company ceased to exist, but claims that they "made parts for BMC" long after they did :) -- Regards, Noddy.

No-one (according to your Googling I assume) really knows if its Morris Wolseley or Morris Wolsely MG. So any argument you might have is purely YOUR interpretation. Oh,,,and MoWoG remained on the castings well nto the 70's. Have a look sometime! OzOne of the three twins I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.

Nope. I've been misquoted....YOU had the post with the exact words "going into production" No-one has come up with that post, despite their craving your pat on the head. Good reason Nod..It was never said... OzOne of the three twins I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.

I thought I said that already? :) > So any argument you might have is purely YOUR interpretation. How does that even make sense? Still, it does nothing to address the issue of "Morris wolseley garages" being defunct long before the Mini was ever born or there being a BMC "special tuning" department. Pretty hard to be a "specialist tuner" when the company didn't exist, huh? :) > Oh,,,and MoWoG remained on the castings well nto the 70's. > Have a look sometime! Mowog remained on just about everything cast in the old Morris foundry until BMC became part of Leyland. From that point on the "Mowog" casting mark was replaced with the "Leyland" symbol. -- Regards, Noddy. |
