Modified Morris Minor (1968 2 door saloon) project that is not quite finished but has lots of nice bits and comes with a load of spares.
Selling as we are moving house and it’s fallen down the list of projects.
Runs, starts & stops on the drive, not ready to drive on the road so will need a trailer / transporter to take away.
The good bit being that I have got all the good bits you want and all the nuts and bolts have already been sworn at and un-seized.
Over £2,500 worth of parts that aren't standard, including
1275 engine from Healey Sprite
Type 9 gearbox with conversion kit (Ford bell-housing included, was planning on upgrading to Zetec at some point.)
Hydraulic clutch kit (remote reservoir)
Disc brakes on front, (Ford callipers, recently replaced)
Brake servo
Front anti roll bar
Shorter prop shaft
Big bore exhaust / manifold
Nicely set up single SU carb (HIF 44) / Osselli Torquemaster inlet manifold
New rear springs fitted about 1 year before going into garage to “rest”.
Poly-bushed all round
Oil pressure / water temp / rev counter
Wider rear wheels 165/70R14 Tyres, not sure on rim width
Inertia seat belts front & rear
Also have a ribbed gearbox - from the 1275 engine that has a broken tooth so needs rebuilding & original length prop
Extra spares, (most in the photos)
front ns wing
boot lid
loads of extra nuts / bolts etc.
pair of recon half shafts, (still in box from ESM)
couple of unused panels
door seals
Welding done:
Both inner front wings
Both A pillars
front floor new panels
both inner & outer sills new panels
rear floor in parts
rear hanger
rear inner arches
boot floor
There is a bit more to do, (isn’t there always?):
Cross member could do with bottom half doing, (it's starting to laminate a bit)
Front tie bar mounts
Around the rear wheel arches
Door bottoms
Tidying up. (IE grinding back.)
Stuff left to do:
Lights need wiring up
Fibreglass floor section over gearbox needs cutting / drilling and fitting.
Wings need to be properly attached, rear ones need a bit of work around the bottoms but aren’t to bad.
Engine core plug is weeping, only noticed once engine & gearbox went back in and didn’t want to try sorting it while in the car.
Paint preparation etc.
To be clear it really isn’t near enough complete to drive on the road, trailer / loader needed.
Don't bid if you aren't going to buy, if you want to come and look please do, based in East Sussex, (about 20 minutes from ESM).
