Vehicle Detail

Please Note: I just reduced the Buy It Now. I'm still listening to offers. As stated further on in the ad, I am selling because I have too many cars. I prefer to sell, but I will consider a part trade. Offer what you have and some cash and we'll see if it works for me. I need to make room, so again would prefer to sell. Old Vespa, Lambretta, Cushman, Triumph Tiger Cub, rebuilt flathead, flathead performance parts, Model A ... but will listen to what you offer. Let's make a deal. This sale is for: 1967 Morris 850 Mini. The car has approximately 76,443 kilometers (47,499 miles) on it. It was repainted at some point in its past. It has the original interior. The Mini came with the hydrolastic suspension, also known as wet suspension, and still retains it to this day. I believe I am the 3rd owner. OTHER INFORMATION: The car has been sitting for about 2 years. I have too many cars and too little time, so have decided it is time to let this car go. I put a new Optima battery in it along with fresh fuel. It started right up and ran well. The body is in good condition with only a couple of what appear to be minor rust repairs in both of the rear portion of the rocker panels, just in front of the rear wheelwell arches. There is a small rust spot showing in the left front rocker panel. (See the pictures for more info) The floorboards feel solid and there are no repairs I have seen. The bottom of the battery box has some corrosion so I have put an extra plate in just to keep it solid. There is a minor dent/dimple on the right side door. The color is a dark maroon. The interior is tan. The rear frame has been replace due to a couple of cracks in it. The hydrolastic suspension was evacuated and then refilled with the proper Morris fluid. The tubes and line appear to be in good condition and held a vacuum when the system was evacuated before refilling and it now holds pressure. I added a Pertronix Ignition Module. I also change the oil filter system to a spin on oil filter. The interior is in decent condition, although the carpet/mats are showing age. Each of the front seats have a tear in the bottoms of approximately 1” in length, but are otherwise in good shape. All the gauges work. It runs the original engine and complete driveline, as far as I can tell. The car needs to be serviced, ie: LOF, fluids checked and added as needed, brakes inspected and adjusted, tires inspected, etc. The car deserves to be detailed. Washed, waxed, buffed, chrome polished, and interior cleaned and upholstery treated. The car appears to have been used, but not abused before I purchased it. At the Buy It Now price, I will include extra Morris brand fluid for the suspension, the vacuum pump I use to evacuate, fluid trap, hand pump to refill, and the necessary adapter. This is include ONLY with the Buy It Now price. THE FINE PRINT and THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW: I am sure I have left some details out, so check out the pictures, reread what I have written, e-mail me with your questions AND then bid. The car is being sold as is, where is. There is no warranty stated, written, or implied. This is a 47 year old vehicle. As any car of this vintage it may need a few things done. I would encourage you to inspect the car first. I have given any info as to the needs of the car, as I know them, in the most honest manner. I like the car and may have inadvertently overlooked some of it’s clunks, rattles, and little quirks. You will be satisfied with my honest description. e-mail me with questions. I will gladly call serious buyers if you send your phone and best time to call, but I am not available Sunday mornings. A nonrefundable deposit of $500.00 must be made within 48 hours of the end of auction/sale. It may be made either by PayPal or U.S.P.S. Postal Money Order (any other type of funds will be considered nonpayment). BALANCE is due within 10 days of the end of the auction or (which ever occurs first) prior to picking the car up, shipping the car, or receiving delivery of the car from the seller. BALANCE must be by wire transfer, cash or other funds that are verifiable and guaranteed at the time of exchange. I will work the details out with the purchaser. NEITHER THE CAR NOR THE TITLE WILL BE GIVEN OUT UNTIL THE FUNDS ARE FULLY EXCHANGED, VERIFIED, AND USABLE IN MY ACCOUNT. The car is sold as is, where is, however, I will work with you and/or your shipper on being available. Buyer pays all shipping and insurance costs. The winning bidder is responsible for any and all title, plates, taxes, transfers, inspections, insurance, and any other charges related to the purchase of the car. As always, I retain the right to end the auction for any reason, including if sold through another venue. BTW, the white spots you see in the pictures are snow flakes coming down on a sunny day and are not spots in the paint or glass. Thank you for looking and have a great day
