saw this little pearler Morris 1000 on my way home this morning - sublime resto job absolutely pristine
You know what really amazes me about that morry is not that it's so cherry, it's all the accessories, they all look like factory items. It's remarkable enough that the car survived this long, let alone all the extras.
good example are the Spatz , there were still plenty of Morrys around when I was a kid, but I don't ever recall seeing one with Spatz
At a guess there was a good chance all had been sourced direct from the UK mate - it all fit well with the pulldown anyway
You'de be surprised what they reproduce these days.. www.ebay.com.au/itm/MORRIS-MINOR-1000-SERIES-MODEL-REAR-WHEEL-ARCH-SPATS-NEW/231246805048?hash=item35d7623838:g:D98AAOxy7RBRY5th,Spats,Visors,Blinds they make them all,I've bought off this mob because finding originals are like finding a needle in a hay stack because a lot of the originals rusted out or just plain fell apart,more than likely they are reproductions or he's been hunting around at swap meets to buy originals which cost bigger bucks "IF" you can find them.There where heaps of these Morris's around in Australia back in the day.Although you don't see to many 2 doors these days!...
geez that old XR 'coonie reminds me of that old Skippy the bush kangaroo one ... Ranger Hammond wasn't it hahaha the dash layout & style on them was farken great loved them
^^^^^^
Well as luck would have it - after I had my surf and vacated the crime scene , the little UK beast was parked up right beside me so ..... naturally I snapped a few more off
here you go Jimmy
