1935 Morris 8 - series 1 – Tourer
One of the most successful British cars of the 1930’s, the Morris Eight was introduced in 1934 as the replacement for the original 8hp Minor. Powered by a 918cc side valve engine.
So durable was the Eight to prove that many were still in daily use and a familiar sight on British roads right up until the 1970s.
Plenty of Eights survive and are catered for by the enthusiastic Morris Register, with excellent spares availability.
This superb Morris was subject to a bare chassis rebuild in 2022 this is a superb example of this enduringly popular model. Fresh MOT runs until 15/ 08/ 2025.
This year it has had the steering overhauled, bottom end engine seals and gaskets replaced. starter rewired, fuel sender modified to work with the replacement gauge, led bulbs all round, new hood and interior reupholstered. This little Morris puts a smile on everyone’s face when they see it.
The car is regularly used and travels to shows all over the Scottish Borders travelling up to 150 miles without issue and is happy cruising at 50mph.
Garage space is needed for a new acquisition.
