MORRIS MINI 1000 * 1 Lady Owner From New * Unrepeatable Time Warp
This car was supplied new by Morpeth Triumph/ Morris dealer Harry Wood on 1st November 1973 to Mrs Murphy for nearly 52 years her only owner. She was then dispatched immediately with 38 miles on her to North East Rustproofing limited for a full Ziebart treatment at a cost of £40. 70
She was then ran as a daily car, been cared for all her life by Tom Reynolds Motor Engineers of Ashington and Dippie & Richardson Motor Engineers. There are over 60 invoices for all work carried out over the years giving a fascinating insight into running a Mini for over 50 years - everything from minor oil services to new sub frames and engine work, clutches etc over her 97000 miles.
Original dealer rear window sticker, number plates and tartan rug!
We were lucky enough to acquire this vehicle and offer her for sale - she starts first turn of the key and runs nicely - the interior is unusual in its original burgundy colour vinyl, and immaculate baring a taped over split on the drivers seat base (new covers are available around £120 I believe ).
Structurally the vehicle is in fine condition, having been regularly undersealed over the years - the sills are solid with no issues. Rear subframe looks in excellent shape.
Body has good even gaps, is again very solid , the paintwork is overall very presentable with only the odd very minor blemish/ bubble.
She has done very few miles over the last 3 years and I would recommend getting her serviced.
This is a rare opportunity to obtain an amazing Mini 1000 with a huge history and one lady owner from new.
Come with current V5 document, ( zero previous owners) original v5 from new.
I can possibly assist with delivery at additional cost to your door.
