A very presentable 1954 Morris Minor series II 803 cc petrol-engined two-door saloon motor car, registration no. FO 7708, first registered on the 10th September 1954 and finished in grey paint-work with red upholstery and carpets. Currently SORN'd and being an Historic Vehicle is M.O.T. exempt, although it is advised that the car should be checked over by a mechanic prior to use on the public highway. The engine number is recorded as APHM 116074. This nice example of the marque has been owned and pampered over many years by a local motor/mechanical engineer, a regular attendee of our auctions, but now sadly no longer with us. The car has been lovingly used and improved by him and is understood to be to the original specification with the exception of the rear axle final-drive ratio, which we are informed has had the original 5.375:1 crown wheel & pinion changed to a higher ratio of 4.55:1, this being far better suited to the modern road system. The speedometer, which currently shows 2,254, miles (not guaranteed correct) has been replaced, presumably to allow for the higher gearing. What is believed to be the original speedometer is also with the car. The car starts easily has excellent oil pressure and drives as she should, the drum brakes being quite effective and the ride is surprisingly resilient even on mediocre surfaces. The Morris minor was developed with the considerable input of Alec Issigonis (later renowned for his design of the revolutionary Mini) as a more modern replacement of the Morris 8. Lord Nuffield apparently, rather cruelly, suggested that the early designs had the appearance of a "poached egg". The early iterations were also considered of inadequate width and an additional four inches were added to the width at its centre, this being evident as the band along the bonnet's centre line, which continued as a design feature in all of the production cars. Initially, the low-light design cars utilised a modified version of the 918 cc side-valve Morris 8 engine with certain modifications including a crankshaft incorporating counter-weights and later with a water circulation pump rather than the old fashioned thermo-siphon principle, which did not facilitate the operation of a cabin heater. In its own way the Morris Minor was also revolutionary in being of unitary construction with torsion-bar independent front suspension, thus providing a very broad engine compartment without the intrusion of a traditional beam front axle, Issigonis's original intention having been for the car to have a newly developed flat-four water cooled power unit. With the increased width and eventually with the headlights being relocated into the front wings the shape became more appealing and one of the classic designs of the era, which made it so popular for family motoring. The flat-four engine never came to fruition and the old side-valve engine was replaced in the series II by Morris's first mass-produced A-series overhead valve engine of some 803 cc, as in the vehicle we have for sale. In spite of its smaller capacity, the A-series engine with its Westlake designed cylinder head had considerably more power than the old side-valve unit and went on to be utilised in a vast range of vehicles of various capacities including 848, 948,1098 & 1275 cc as well as Cooper & Cooper S versions of 970, 997, 998, 1071 & 1275 cc. The last year of use of the A-series engine in a production car was as recent as 2000. Here is an opportunity to purchase an economical motor car that has great character and which is sure to create great interest wherever she goes, especially with the upcoming season of vintage shows and rallies that are scheduled to be run now that Covid-19 appears to be abating. The V5C is present, as well as a number of old MOT certificates, and there is also an original "Morris Minor (Series II) Operation Manual". ****N.B.
