1959 MORRIS MINOR TRAVELLER ~ EARLY 'SEMAPHORE' MODEL!!!! For Sale

We have pleasure in offering this early Morris Minor Traveller Estate. Donald was born in 1959 dressed in his distinctive grey coat complimented with lovely patinated red interior trim. The interior is in great condition throughout. Fully folding driver & passenger seats.

The wooden frame is in great order (no soft bits!!). The wheels are in excellent condition having undergone a recent full powder coating complete with nearly new tyres all round.

He starts on first pull of the starter and runs very well indeed. Nice 'Banjo' steering wheel. Door gaps good and all door bottoms in good order (no rot). Semaphores fully operational. Over sixty years young this sprightly moggy is tax exempt and very economical to insure under classic insurance (excellent for first time drivers). Historic tax (free of course). MOT exempt. Donald comes with a file of service records & old MOT's.

Donald is in good usable order throughout with room for improvement & to add value. Drives well with a good gearbox & clutch (though the clutch pedal is quite firm, may need adjusting but works perfectly well).

The paint appears quite original & untouched and has a few scuffs & blemishes & fading in places but I think that adds to the character and history of a vehicle!!! Great patina in other words!!!

Certainly not a show winner but a nice honest, solid & characterful Traveller.

Date of first registration:  11/ 05/ 1959
Registration Number:??  273 XVD
Chassis Number:???   M/ AW3/ 718671
Engine Number:???   9MUH315706

The car belonged to my deceased father and had two previous owners. It has a full service history but has been unroadworthy lying in a garage for several years. Currently the body is in reasonable condition but the following will need attention: 1. The brakes probably need replacing. 2. The engine has seized. ...
