1971 Morris Minor 1000 Traveller 5 speed manual.
This stunning Moggy finished in' Glacier' white with beautiful contrasting red interior, has recently been in the hands of the highly respected and recognized Morris Minor Specialists, The 'Morris Minor Workshop' in Sussex where it underwent a very comprehensive body, interior and mechanical restoration between 2023 and 2024, all documented with photographic records, in an organised A4 folder at costs in the region of £20, 000. Now presenting in a condition probably better than when it left the production line 54 years ago! The attention to detail is second to none, with all works carried out to an incredibly high show standard.
Body wise this Moggy has had many panels renewed with new inner and outer sills, floor pans, wings, doors and valances all cavity injected to ensure protection for many years to come. The important wood frame has all been renewed and treated with 'Sikkens' Cetol wood treatment process. The sliding window rubbers were renewed. The chrome inc the bumpers etc were renewed..
Mechanically this Moggy benefits from a 5 speed manual gearbox, mated to its original 1098 engine, now converted to unleaded fuel and a brake servo making the drive far superior to a standard Moggy, easily keeping up with modern traffic. Works carried out include new clutch, brake pipes, stainless steel exhaust, electronic distributor, brake master cylinder, battery, fan belt, hoses, plug leads, spark plugs, air filter and front suspension overhaul with new trunnions and track rod ends. Four brand new radial tyres just fitted
The interior is very much like new with brand new carpets, sound deadening, headling, door seals, window rubber and chrome sill step finishers. The paintwork has a gorgeous depth of shine with a deep lustre and is virtually unmarked. Inertia reel front seat belts. Two sets of keys are with the car and even a boxed 'Corgi' model!
A fantastic opportunity to aquire what is possibly one of the best Moggys currently available, restored to an incredibly high show standard. The total cost of the original purchase of the car, plus the labour, time and parts, far exceeds the now advertised figure of only £19995.
Although Mot exempt with the benefit of free road tax, as classed as a historic vehicle this Moggy has a current adivsory free Mot until Sep 2026.
