LOT 33: A 1958 Morris 1000 Tourer, registration number WGH 698, old English white. WGH 698 is a right hand drive export model built on 11th July 1958 at the Morris Works, Cowley, Oxford. There are no available records of where WGH 698 was exported too, but the car was subsequently registered in London under the Home Delivery Export Scheme in June 1978, some twenty years later after it was built. A complete professional restoration and rebuild was carried out in 2014, including the engine being rebuilt to 948cc unleaded specification, the conversion of the drum brakes to discs with servo, electronic ignition with the semaphore style indicators retained incorporating flashing direction indicators. The cost of this restoration was approx. £14, 000. Our vendor purchased the Morris from a previous Charterhouse auction and it has formed part of a significant collection since.
