Description
This Classic Restored 1965 English Moris Minot 1000 car. It was designed by Alex Issigonis shortly after the second world war. This car was imported to the US in 1998 after a rebuild by the Morris Minor specialist, Charles Ware in Bristol England. During the rebuild, all four original wings (fenders) were replaced with new steel ones. The engine was upgraded to that of a Midget Sprite !275 cc's. and the gear box was replaced by a 5 speed gearbox. The front brakes were upgraded to disk brakes and the rear brake pads were replaced, along with a new clutch. The brake master cylinder was moved from beneath the floor of the driver's side and to the engine bay for conveniance sake. The upholstery leather and carpeting were also replaced, and the car was painted a racing green. The final change was moving the British right hand drive over to a left hand drive. These changes were promoted by Morris Specialist ware as being logical improvements if the Morris had been kept into production. This well kept and maintained automobile also has a spare tire, extra wipers, extra filters, and an old Morris Newspaper ad. It measures 60" tall X 62" across X 148" long. It has 58, 239 Miles on the speedometer.
