The Alec Issigonis designed Morris Minor has served a useful purpose as an everyday car since its introduction in 1948. This is still an aspect to the car that is still true today, with the car offering potential for everyday use if desired. This example is a 1954 Minor Series II and is being sold for recommissioning or restoration. The car was last on the road in 2015, the engine fitted is a later engine which starts and runs well and has low mileage. The bodywork and wheels are in good condition but with small rust patches in places (the chrome will also require some attention). There is little history with the car but the electrics, gearbox, clutch and general running gear are in sound condition. The interior of the car presents well and should not require much attention. There is certainly great potential.
