1961 RARE MORRISON ELECTRICAR D4 ELECTRIC MILK FLOAT SOLD

RARE MORRISON ELECTRICAR D4 ELECTRIC MILK FLOAT.
THIS IS A SMALL BUT FULLY ROAD LEGAL AND ROAD REGISTERED FLOAT READY TO WORK, IDEAL FOR GETTING DOWN NARROW LANES OR INSIDE BUILDINGS !
WE SUPPLIED THIS FLOAT TO AN ARTISAN NUT MILK COMPANY LAST YEAR AFTER COMPLETING A FULL RENOVATION OF THIS CHARMING LITTLE FLOAT, ( I SAY LITTLE, AS IT'S LIKE A 3/ 4 SIZE FLOAT MEASURING JUST 10 FEET LONG X 4 FEET WIDE AND STANDS JUST UNDER 6 FEET HIGH ).
WE FITTED A COMPLETE NEW 18 CELL BATTERY SET ( 36 VOLTS ), ALONG WITH A MODERN STYLE ELECTRIC FOOT CONTROLLER FOR ADDED SAFETY AND EASE OF USE AND MAINTENANCE AS OPPOSED TO UTILISING THE ORIGINAL STYLE CONTACTORS.
THE FLOAT HAD A COMPLETE MECHANICAL OVERHAUL INCLUDING FULL CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS OF BRAKES, SUSPENSION, CHASSIS, STEERING, LIGHTS, ALONG WITH MOTOR BRUSHES AND BEARINGS ALL BEING CHECKED THROUGH, BASICALLY WE WILL GO OVER IT FRONT TO BACK TOP TO BOTTOM.
NOW THEY NEED A BIGGER VEHICLE SO IT'S READY TO GO FOR IT'S NEW OWNER, IT WILL ALSO BE SUPPLIED WITH AN APPROPRIATE MODERN CHARGER TO SUIT.

THIS IS A VERY RARE CLASSIC FLOAT, ALTHOUGH LIKE MOST FLOATS IT CAN BE USED FOR A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT USES AS WELL AS OF COURSE BACK AS A MILK FLOAT OR YOU COULD USE IT FOR POTTERING AROUND IN OR DRIVING DOWN TO THE PUB IN !
CLASSIC ELECTRIC MILK FLOATS ARE MOT AND TAX EXEMPT TOO.
IT SHOULD ALSO BE IN DEMAND FOR FILM WORK BEING SO RARE AND ICONIC, ( ASA GUIDE WE NORMALLY RENT THESE FLOATS OUT FROM £500-£1, 000 A DAY FOR FILM AND PROMOTIONAL WORK )

THIS LOVELY LITTLE D4 IS ONE FOR AN ENTHUSIAST/ COLLECTOR BUT EQUALLY WOULD MAKE A UNIQUE PROMOTIONAL VEHICLE, IN FACT THE LAST FLOAT WE HAD OF THIS SIZE WAS A SIMILAR AND EQUALLY RARE RESTORED "HARBILT 860" WHICH WAS SOLD FOR £14, 000 TO A PROMOTIONS COMPANY WHO THEN CONVERTED IT INTO A MOBILE SHOP FOR AN AMERICAN VAPING CIGARETTE COMPANY !

FULLY GONE THROUGH BY OUR OUR EXPERIENCED FLOAT ENGINEER THIS FLOAT IS READY TO GO.
FEEL FREE TO POP OVER AND TAKE A LOOK..

WE NORMALLY STOCK SOME 10-12 CLASSIC-VINTAGE MILK FLOATS, SMITH CABAC, WALES AND EDWARDS, MORRISON, LEYLAND, CROMPTON, HARBILT ETC.
