RK "bumpers"
#19
As the long time owner of a 1936 Morris 8 Series I Tourer, Bill is absolutely correct in saying that chrome with twin black enamel recess bumpers made from fluted spring steel with rolled ends and dome caps were fitted as standard to all Series I and II Eight's from 1934 to 1938. As Bill mentions the front bumper has a small plate riveted centrally and behind the bumper blade and positioned below it through which the detachable starting handle is pushed and held in place whilst cranking the engine. As a Morris Register member of many years standing, I can say that bumpers don't come up for sale very often though I've occasionally seen some on eBay. Quite a number of Eights have lost theirs over time so it's fair to say bumpers are now usually sought after items.
You can buy at huge expense new highly polished stainless steel and black Morris 8 Ser. I / II bumpers complete with dome end caps for around £891 pair including VAT – they’re priced in euros.
