Seller's comments about 1970' Morris Minor

1970 MORRIS MINOR 1000 PICKUPThe 1970 Morris Minor pickup represents the final evolution of the iconic Morris Minor LCV (Light Commercial Vehicle) line, produced just before production ended in 1971. Featuring the 1098cc A-Series engine, the largest standard unit for the model. Unlike the monocoque saloon, the pickup uses a separate chassis to handle commercial loads. By 1970, these were typically 8cwt (hundredweight) models, featuring heavier rear springs compared to earlier 6cwt versions. Many 1970 models are technically badged as Austins, a rebranding move by BMC/ British Leyland to maintain a commercial presence in Austin showrooms after the A35 was discontinued but this one retains its Morris branding. This beautifully restored example dating to 1970 and showing just 72000 miles benefits from an alternator and servo assisted brakes. Chrome hubcaps all round together with chrome bumpers. Nicely turned out, it has the metal sunvisor, chrome wing mirrors and rear load space tonneau cover and chequerplate central load area. There is a history file testing to the work that has been done- the previous keeper owned her for over 10 years. There is a new spare wheel. Believed to be one of around 806 remaining examples in the UK. Ready to be shown or put into new commercial livery- this delightful vehicle starts and runs supremely well and is realistically guided at just £10, 500-£12, 500. This vehicle is located near Southampton, Hampshire from where it will need to be collected. Motorscan report and videos available on request. Viewing is by appointment, please contact the office to arrange.
