MORRIS OXFORD SERIES Vl FARINA

This 1962 example of a Morris Oxford A60 Series lV Farina is in very good condition.

Between 2011 and 2015 over £8700 was spent on its restoration and improvement including over £3500 spent with Steve Turner, who is a recognized specialist Farina repairer and secretary of the Oxford-Cambridge Owners Club.

The work Mr. Turner completed included a full engine rebuild, a new clutch, new leaf springs, new brakes, brake master cylinder, petrol pump, clutch master cylinder, suspension bushes, and numerous other parts.

Since then it has had a full body respray at a cost of £2630 plus the cost of some new panels where needed.

The car spent 2016 in professional storage at a cost of £1195 and recently it has had a new carpet set fitted.

The history file contains the current V5, the current MOT, numerous old mot certificates, an original owners handbook, a wonderful handwritten Motor Car Expenses Book covering the first few years of its life detailing mileage covered and petrol used and a large number of invoices detailing the restoration work carried out and the parts purchased.

The current MOT runs until September 2019 although it is MOT exempt and the recorded mileage is 72119.

The car will be licensed for twelve months from the date of sale for the new owner at no cost as the car qualifies for the Historic Taxation class.

UK wide professional delivery is available. Please ring for a quote. We are also happy to deliver to any mainland port for export.

1963 MORRIS MINI TRAVELLER

1963 Morris Mini Traveller in stunning Surf blue. This outstanding early traveller has the flat roof, long gear lever and as much charm as an old period cottage! Driving on the roads today it looks like a real piece of history as is admired by everyone who sees it. It was found in a dry barn in 2001 where it had been sat since 1981. 6 years later it was totally restored and being driven again when the sun was shining. The quality of restoration was clearly high as 10 years on it still looks immaculate and drives wonderfully. During the restoration, the only upgrade was to the front brakes which are now twin leading shoe which stop the mini well. It has been loved and maintained and enjoyed making regular trips from Kent down to Goodwood by its last owner. It has only had 4 owners in the past 55 years, covering 31500 miles. I have a thick history file to support all of the work done plus a mini magazine feature which has been enlarged to A3 for shows. Included with the car are the original steel wheels with up caps and wheel nuts, some spare number plates, the original steering wheel and a pair of matching bucket seats. The pictures say it all and the condition of the body is as good as it looks. The quality of the paintwork is to a show standard and the entire underside in body coloured and immaculate. The front seats are showing some age which I prefer to new seats as this mini is all about charm and history. Free delivery to your door in my curtain sided van within 200 miles of Tiverton. Please see the finance link above to see ways of dividing the cost of your new Morris Mini Traveller.

1960 LAND ROVER SERIES IIA

North American Spec Station Wagon

A Rare Opportunity to Acquire an Exceptionally Original, Unmolested & Very Desirable 1960 Series II Land Rover 88" North American Specification Station Wagon.

Collectors Piece!

Just under 13,000 Miles from new & 1 Family Owner from new. This is by far the very best example of a Series 2 we have ever seen. 

Unique in such original condition this left hand drive example was first supplied new to a gentleman in Massachusetts USA. The vehicle was then passed onto his daughter in the mid 1970's who then lived in New Hampshire. During this period they also lived in the UK and only spent their summers in New Hampshire it was only used for local trips to Peterborough, the nearby town and for visiting neighbours and friends. They had a second vehicle and so didn't use it all the time it was mostly stored in a barn on the property, hence such a low mileage. During the winter months a family friend looked after and maintained the Land Rover making sure it was always serviced and kept in working order. When the family moved, the Land Rover was shipped back to the UK. The last family owner was the gentleman's granddaughter, therefore it has been passed through a total of three generations. A full documented and interesting history will be made available to the purchaser.

Retaining all of its original panels and its original interior. 

A very rare find indeed and one unlikely ever to be repeated - truly remarkable!

To find an unmolested example has become very hard, but to find one that has had just one family owner, only covered twelve thousand - eight hundred miles, retains all of its original panels, its original chassis, engine, gearbox, and even all of its original factory interior and accessories well that's unheard of..............

The vehicle really does speak for itself, it has all it's original tool kit, jack, jack handle, starting handle, Lucas spares. The original Owner's manual, service agents book, US title, Service History, UK registered since 2013, Mots.

The vehicle is also fitted with a very unique item, only ever seen in sales brochures, a Land Rover "Kodiak" VI Fresh Air Heater which includes Fresh air controls, temp control and heater. The blower under bonnet has a mesh air intake at front grille, period fan, all accessories are wired through the ignition. The vehicle also benefits from the original stamped wheels being re powered coated, original date stamped August 1960 radiator.

The vehicle still retains all it’s original Lucas headlights, lenses for indicators, side lights and brake lights which is nice to see as these items are now obsolete. 

The hardtop roof is in excellent condition and has no dents or scratches. The chassis is near perfect as the best we have ever seen on an unrestored vehicle, no welding as ever been required and none is needed. It is excellent. 

The interior is exemplary - by far the best original Land Rover Series II it still has it's original Land Rover fitted floor mats, the individual rear seats are in perfect condition with no rips, even the straps to fold the seats away are in perfect condition. 

Door cards to the front and rear doors are original factory items and are excellent. It still retains all it's original triplex glass in the windscreen, door tops, backdoor and hardtop. All windows open, all the window channels are good and because the vehicle has been kept under cover not rusted away as so often is the case. The load area is exceptionally clean and doesn't show any sights of heavy use. 

One of the best original engine bays we have seen on a Series 2, extremely clean with original stickers still in place.
Original paint to engine block. Factory fitted inner mud shields unusually still both in place and are intact.

The factory fitted engine busts into life on the turn of the key. It is apparent that this is a vehicle that has been maintained and covered low mileage it runs as quiet and smooth as any Series Land Rover that we have ever had. 

A joy to drive and such fun, the vehicle has a 12-month MOT with no advisories. Four wheel drive and low range engage, as they should. The gears change up and down as they should it has a very quite gearbox which is a good sign of it's light use over the years. 

Almost all Series Land Rovers we have had drip a little oil, some quite a lot, however this is the exception no drips of oil to speak of even after standing for days in the same place.

The steering is as it should be and the vehicle doesn't wonder on the road like some series vehicles do. This vehicle doesn't have the wear in all the usual places as the mileage is minute
. 

SUMMARY

On offer is an unmolested and original Series 2 North American Spec 88" Station Wagon in immaculate original condition. All the numbers match - the chassis numbers on the plates are the same as on the log book registration document and that stamped on the chassis itself. The engine number also matches that recorded on the logbook. All other original documentation is present and too be kept with the vehicle. 

This is one of the best low mileage and original untouched Series 2 we have ever had the opportunity to own. 

This Land Rover has obviously been cared for and cherished by its previous owner who have owned her for 57 years.

It is very solid example that requires no work and is ready to use and enjoy.

It retains its original chassis, still displays the V.I.N clearly stamped on it by the factory. 

You will have to go a long way to find a better vehicle. 

If you are an investor you will already known the growing importance of original un-messed with condition for classic cars. You will also know that Land Rover never used galvanised chassis for production of Series vehicles - so one that's been fitted with one cannot by any stretch claim to be original and un-messed with. If you are an enthusiast then you will not be disappointed with this vehicle as it is perfect in almost ever detail and is exactly as it left the factory 36 years ago. 

This is a very honest 36-year-old Series Land Rover. 

VALUE

Low mileage, history, condition, and originality will contribute greatly to the value of any classic. Anybody can restore a Land Rover to a certain standard however you can't make anymore-original low mileage, low ownership vehicles and so for that reason these vehicles are becoming increasingly harder to find and so any opportunity to buy one shouldn't be missed.
