The Morris Minor was in many people’s eyes as important as the Mini when it comes to British society and ferrying the average family around on their weekly chores. More than 1. 6 million of them were manufactured between 1948 - 1971.
This series II four door looks the part in black with red pinstripe and chrome door handles. These cars had many changes over the initial Minor, but as well as restoring the car, recent owners have also enhanced it with some changes to make it more fun and useable. The engine is upgraded to the later 1098 unit accompanied by a later gearbox. The car also benefits from a stainless steel exhaust, servo assisted disc brakes and telescopic shock absorbers. The interior has been retrimmed in red leather complimented by new carpets and head lining. The exterior is also finished with new front and rear bumpers. The sale includes a current V5C.
Estimate: £6, 000 – 8, 000
