1963 Morris Minor 4 Door saloon For Sale

Morris Minor saloon motor car first registered in November 1963 as the deluxe model having the luxury of duo two tone seating and Banjo steering wheel and the larger 1098cc engine.
The car was first registered to its first owner Mrs E Wood in the Hertfordshire area, the car then later transferred to her daughter (date not known) After spending 30 years in the Wood family the car then sold on to Mr Callaby in February 1993 from Middlesbrough with a mileage reading of 49, 855. There then followed a phographed and detailed documented restoration lasting almost three years at which point before completion the car was sold to Mr Raglan as the cost was more than the owners could afford.
Upon completion of restoration the car was entrusted to DT Matthewson after 18 months of ownership with a mileage of 51, 772 at this point the car appeared in an episode of the TV programme Heartbeat.
Mr Carlton Ventress then purchased the Morris and fondly named her "Gladys"
The car is now showing what I believe to be a genuine 64, 900 miles, although exempt has a current MOT until October 2019. obviously tax exemption applies too!
The car today is truly beautiful and testament to obviously a first class restoration in lovely order with bright rust free paintwork, mirror finish chrome, show detailed under bonnet, having recent fitted new SU fuel pump, new battery, electronic ignition, spin on oil filter conversion, new sparking plugs. Overhauled brakes, engine oil, gearbox oil, rear axle oil, new antifreeze.
From this point to be assured of reliability all hose clips were replaced, alternator conversion, new fan belt fitted, dampers checked and re-oiled as required.
Seats have just been restored on undersides with new Dunlop straps, new foams fitted by professional upholsterer.
The car has body coloured floorplans under the carpets, freshly Finnigans wax oiled underbody to protect for many years to come and new correct boot lid and front period pressed number plates just fitted to enhance the period look.
It goes without saying really but this is a seriously sorted running perfectly Morris minor of which I fully intended to keep for a long time hence all my recent works (November 18) but a vintage tractor has come for sale that I would like to own so hence the decision to sell.
V5 in my name with large history folder and photographic restoration folder, workshop manual included.
