NOW SOLD to Bob in Arkansas! Congratulations Bob and family!
This 1960 Morris Minor is something quite special. I’ve owned quite a few of these cars over the years, and this is a particularly sensational example that was the subject of a very high level restoration. Most of these Minors were everyday utility vehicles and now show significant wear. This car, however, was treated to the best of everything during restoration and is far better than when new.
She shines beautifully, and the woodwork is also exceptionally well-restored… the wood and the paint looks brand new. The interior is excellent. The underside is excellent. If you want one of the best, this is your car.
This particular Traveller also has all the right upgrades to make this eye-catching classic into a very usable vehicle that can take-on the modern world. The front brakes have been upgraded to discs, more efficient and powerful replacements for the original front drums. The engine has also been upgraded to a rebuilt 1275 with twin SU HS2 carbs, a great improvement over the original single SU tethered to the 848cc A-series engine that was standard Minor equipment in 1960. Additional reliability upgrades were incorporated into the engine swap, such as Pertronix electronic ignition, K & N lifetime air filters, spin-on oil filter and an alternator (for better charging).
