1970 Morris Traveller. Almond Green 1098cc owned for 33 years!
I have owned this car since I was just 17. I am now 52 years old and it was an 18th Birthday present from my late father and bought from a lady in Tunbridge Wells when it had a mere 23. 00 miles recorded. She decided to sell the Morris as she was buying what was then a brand new. just come out. wait for it. Austin Metro! arghhhh.
This car has never been painted and the woodwork is original with no rot whatsoever!
I have had some fantastic times with this great little car. camping with friends. carrying my drums in the back when I was in a band. getting high at Cambers Sands watching the sun going down and taking my first girlfriend out on my very first date to a local pub. ah happy days!
Why then I hear you saying are you selling such an important part of your life. well to be honest I was keeping it for either my son or daughter but they want something more modern and to be fair in this day and age the Morris would not be appropriate.
The Morris has always been cared for and cosseted. no expense has ever been spared for its upkeep. it had a Gold seal replacement engine some 20 years ago since when it has only been used sparingly in fact I would doubt it it has covered no more than 200 miles.
I have occasionally replaced or upgraded parts that have required it. like seat swabs. door cards. carpet. etc.
I do have the original steel wheels and steering wheel. I put the ones in the pictures on to try and convince my son it was a cool car. it did not work!
So there you have it. a great little car that I will be so sad to see go but to be fair it never gets used and is kept in a heated storage area and run up once a month and that is just no life for this sweet thing. it needs someone to cherish and use it.
There is a very low start price with no reserve offering outstanding value for this treasure.
Any trail or inspection is warmly welcomed by appointment. please call Aidan on: Work 01420 478999  Home 01420 477685 or Mobile 07778 452570
Thanks for looking and good luck.
