1955 Morris Oxford in fantastic condition For Sale

This car was originally purchased from Central Motors of Narbeth (and still bears the original dashboard plate) on 15th November 1955 and was handed down to his two daughters, by the original owner where it was used until 1978. It was then parked up in a barn until April 2014 before being restored to original running condition. It has full service history from 1955 to 1978 and comes with all of its historic documents and photographs of its emergence from the barn.

It has done a genuine 18, 903 miles from new!

The car is in pretty much original condition with very good condition upholstery, working traficators, good condition chrome but with the sort of marking that reflects its age, carpets, interior fittings and glass.

It has been fitted with an electric fuel pump and aftermarket air filter as the original filter housing had deteriorated as it had been home to chickens. Still on the search for an original replacement but they are very rare.

Underside chassis, floorpan, jacking points all in clean, sound, rust free condition. Exhaust in good condition.

The paintwork is original and polishes up well. It could do with some touching up in a couple of areas but I have held off going down the respray route, preferring to stick with its originality.

The car is MOT exempt but has had one as recently as 2017.

The car runs well, is fitted with new, original pattern cross-ply tyres and comes with:

Full set of original documents, service and MOT records
Original owners manual
Original Maintenance manual
Original tool kit
Replacement rubbed door seals (full set)
Fitted car cover
Selection of additional hubcaps, filters, and bits and pieces

The one outstanding issue is that the fuel tank was cleaned out last year and there has still been some sediment getting pulled through, requiring the inline cartridge fuel filter to be replaced frequently. However, this has improved considerably with use and the current fuel filter is clear having now covered 150 miles since fitting. I am pretty sure the fuel issue is now sorted but in case not I am including a pack of 10 inline filters with the car (I got a good deal on a pack of 12 on Amazon!) and it is a simple job to replace. It just needs to do some miles.
