1949 Morris Minor lowlight excellent history
Not only is this 1949 Minor lowlight saloon a sight to behold, her history that links her directly to the Production of the Morris Minor is super interesting too.Produced for the home market new in 1949 sold from the Morris Garages Ltd of Oxford to the chief designer for Nuffield pressed steel Co Ltd for his house keeper.Nuffield being the company that pressed the panels for Morris Motors.William Maton her first owner was thought to have been directly involved in the initial design process or mosquito as it was known pre war.The Minor comes with a file of history backing all this up, with original buff logbook and stacks of receipts and MOT's.The Lowlights bodywork is nice and solid, the paint has a good shine to it and looks gerat although there is the odd blemish here and there. The chrome work trims and rubbers are all good.structurally the car is very solid and all the usual trouble spots have been taken care of when ash was restored as can be seen form the file of pictures suppled.Mechanically the 918cc Sidevalve runs and ticks over well it is nice and smooth and pulls her over well.The transmission is also good, with no crunches or whines, the suspension is also nice and smooth.interior wise the Lowlight is the perfect mix of old and new, the head liner is original but good, the carpets door cards and seat covers are all new and in good order.The red / burghundy really compliments the Minors black coach work.Overall this is a very tidy Lowlight with lots of history, one I would be happy to own personally. one that would not look out of place in any collection.WRCC Yorkshire Minor centre is 100 yards from Sowerby Bridge Train Station, Halifax and 10mins from the Halifax / Huddersfield turn off of the M62 (Junction 24, head to Sowerby Bridge on Elland Bypass, HX63LD)All our cars come to you with 12 Months MOT, 3 Months warranty and are full serviced before leaving,As well as the underside scraped, checked and recoated in your choice of protection.Transport can be arranged both nationally and internationally at a pre-agreed rate.Left hand drive conversion can also be carried out for overseas clients.Credit / Debit cards are accepted.Finance can be arranged should it be required,Part exchange on Morris Minors accepted
