1963 Superb Morris Van 60k genuine miles For Sale

The time has come for me to look at selling my beloved Morris 1000 Van, by private individual sale.

It has been lovingly restored to a high standard, using all original OEM parts. Within my ownership, I have spent over £3, 000 on improving historic places of rust and though not a fully perfect example, it is in incredibly good condition for its age.

The underside of the entire van has been sealed and waxed for added protection too and I have also changed one or two more minor parts for convenience too, such as changing the lock barrels for all doors and ignition so that they run off of the same key and installed new window seals throughout.

The van mechanically runs perfectly and starts first time, every time and has a wonderful grunt to the engine. It was purchased by me from a chap in Chelsea, London by a who owned a classic car garage and undertook all of the major work himself.

The restoration included a full strip down, re-paint, engine rebuild, new flooring (as pictured) and new brakes all round. The van wants for very little right now, though did previously suffer from the odd patch of rust which has been extensively treated before the re-spray.

Since having the van myself, I have had the two original seats professionally reupholstered in a lovely olive green/ cream with the classic style piping.

All dials work, though the fuel gauge is admittedly a little ‘sticky’ and so the needle does not always move.

The underside of the van has been fully sealed and generally, the van wants for nothing at all.

I hold a reasonably comprehensive folder with the history of the van, including photos of it dating back years and years. I understand that the van was owned for around 40 years by a chap and very rarely used but kept in supreme condition. Previous owners were enthusiasts and there are a whole manner of certificates and paperwork showing it’s annual history taking part in the Morris Owners’ Club drive from London to Brighton.

I am selling as I will be putting the money towards a newer car, which is more practical for family life in the near future.

With its wood-panelled rear end, the Morris Minor Traveller was an icon of the British road scene from the 1950s to the 1970s – and in many ways it still is today. Based on the Minor saloon but with a structural timber frame to the rear, the Traveller was an extremely resourceful vehicle in its day and earned its place ...
