Description
1961 Morris Minor. Yukon Grey. 72427 miles (believed correct from history)
MOT till Oct 26 with no advisories.
Comprehensive and very complete 2 folder history with records of Dealer service history starting with the first owner (Miss Graham) in 1961, through to a personal letter of a handover to a friend 31 years later, then through 2 owners, with a sale through East Sussex Morris Minors and a further 3 owners. All of which spent a lot of time and money on care and maintenance. I acquired the car as a limited winter project last year from a retired Engineer who, due to unforeseen circumstances was unable to complete his project work during his 6 years ownership. I have had a Traveller in the past but am moving on to a Convertible.
The car has had minimal welding with components replaced new as necessary:
Engine rebuilt with new pistons (30 thou), rings, bearings, oil pump, clutch etc etc.
Gearbox reconditioned at Bexhill Gearboxes.
Reconditioned back axle
Duplex chain.
New Brake master cylinder
New exhaust and manifold
New SU Petrol pump
New Radiator
New brake linings all round
All suspension bushes replaced
Unleaded head (compression 149, 150, 150, 149)
All dampers (ESM exchange)
Modified (22G118X) gearbox cover
New Harness
New Fuel tank
Powder coated wheels
New door cards fitted and good front seats. Original carpets and rear seat retained.
Orange indicators fitted discretely under the bumpers with a switch on the dash. The original indicators are isolated. The Police advise that the flashing red brake light indicators can be confusing and are not considered safe.
Lovely little Moggie that is absolutely immaculate including the underside. The paint is overall excellent with just a few blemishes (previous owner slipped with a roof rack!). Just some final work left in the interior depending how original you wish to keep it. Requires a headlining.
Too many receipts to mention, a total of £6k in just the last 3 years.
£6, 600 ovno.
