1961 Morris Mini Van - Barons Tuesday 16th July 2019 For Sale by Auction

The Mini Van was a commercial panel van rated at ¼-ton load capacity. Built on the longer Traveller chassis but without side windows, it proved popular in 1960s Britain as a cheaper alternative to the car. It was classed as a commercial vehicle and as such carried no sales tax. A set of simple stamped steel slots served in place of a more costly chrome grille. The Mini Van was renamed as the Mini 95 in 1978, the number representing the gross vehicle weight of 0. 95 tons. 521, 494 were built.

The vendor of this very unusual Morris Mini Van is the original owner, and he has original documents including the order form for the van, the invoice and payment receipt, the original warranty, Customs purchase tax exemption certificate (for side windows), tax discs, MoT's, and number plate transfer document. Amazingly it still has its original front and rear sub-frames, the rear one was blasted, zinc metal sprayed, stoved, as soon as the standard paint fell off. Factory Twin leading shoe front brakes were fitted as soon as they were available, and the car still has the original factory foam filled sills.

The engine/ gearbox unit was dismantled at 60, 000 miles, and later gearbox syncromesh parts added. It has a Cooper oil pump, bearing shells were replaced, alloy/ bronze valve guides, and a 'Deva' clutch bearing fitted. The mileage counter is now on it's second lap. The car has Australian market wind-up window doors, a fibreglass lift-up rear door, the spare wheel is under the floor, and the battery in the engine compartment. It is fitted with fold down rear seats, and a dashboard with added instruments. It has for years been parked first in a garage, and then under covers, for 18+ years. It has been kept mainly dry, but now qualifies as a 'barn find'. The car has always been totally reliable.

Wow! That's expensive! Or is it? I have owned this car since 2016. I lavished a huge amount of money having the car transformed from, what was pretty much a shell, to this stunning vehicle that you see now. I bought this vehicle noticing that it had never ever been painted. I had most panels replaced, either British ...

A lovely old Morris Traveller. This is a welding project. Just the normal welding points that come up in the life of a Traveller but too many all at once for me. I don't need a project. Otherwise she has a good engine, uses no oil. The wood is good except for a patch at the rear of the left waist bar. 07761 028018 Ian<br><br>This ...
