1960s vintage Morris 1000 Convertible

The Cowley, Oxford manufactured car was first registered on 9th May 1963 and was offered for sale by CC Trade.  Finished in black with green keyline, with black hood and green leather interior and new carpets, this little convertible had covered just 76,469 warranted miles in the intervening 51 years since leaving the factory. The car generated a lot of interest prior to sale with hundreds of views of the online catalogue listing at bca.co.uk and sold following some very competitive bidding from both buyers in the hall and online bidders using BCA’s Live Online service. BCA’s Tim Naylor commented “This was a very well presented 1960s Morris that created a real buzz amongst our buyers.  With summer coming this was a very useable historic convertible that would be suitable for concours and classic events, or simply something different for weekend motoring.  With plenty of suppliers for parts and servicing and a very active Morris Owners club, this would be the ideal starter classic for any enthusiast.”
