Vehicle Detail

1963 Convertible Morris Minor (Right-hand Drive) Take it home for $3000 !!!! This unique car has been in our shop for 4 years, and it is now desperately looking for a new home. It is an ORIGINAL convertible, comes with title and the VIN number matches the car! Engine and everything else is in good working order. The car needs some rust and body work and the drive train has been taken apart, but all the pieces are there. Motor, transmission and rear end are out of the car, but will be sold. It also comes with many suspension and braking components, including a front disk brake set-up and a rear suspension strengthening kit, and many extras (too many to list!). This convertible Morris Minor is the perfect project and it is a highly valuable car. SOLD AS IS. However, if you need help with this project, do not hesitate to contact us. The car will be sold for $2000 without the extra parts; if you would like the extra parts for the Minor, it is $3000 OBO Update - 5/20/11 - A fellow eBay-er, "gazzerbogus," told us that this Morris has Chevy Vega wheels which were a direct replacement for the stock wheels but quite a bit wider. A popular add on in the day. SOME WIKI FACTS The Morris Minor was a British economy car that debuted at the Earls Court Motor Show, London, on 20 September 1948.[2] Designed under the leadership of Alec Issigonis, more than 1.3 million were manufactured between 1948 and 1971. Initially available as a 2-door saloon and tourer (convertible), the range was subsequently expanded to include a 4-door saloon in 1950, and in 1952 a wood-framed estate (the Traveller), panel van and pick-up truck variants. The Minor was manufactured in three series, Series I, Series II (1952) and finally the 1000 series (1956). Today the Morris Minor and 1000 are among the best served classic family-sized cars in the old vehicle movement and continue to gain popularity. The enduring affection for the "Moggie" (also a common British nickname for an undistinguished cat, or a Morgan) or "Morrie" (as it is often known in Australia and New Zealand) is reflected in the number of restored and improved Morris Minors currently running in Britain, Australasia and in India. In addition to more powerful engines, desirable improvements necessitated by the increase in traffic density since the Minor was withdrawn from volume production include the replacement of the original equipment drum brakes with discs. Other important upgrades include the 1,275 cc (77.8 cu in) version of the A-series engine, derided by Morris Marina enthusiasts as a key reason why many Marinas were scrapped. Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson once stated that the Morris Minor is Britain's Volkswagen Beetle.
