MORRIS MINOR 1949 ALTA ENGINE for sale
Current customer rating: (262 votes ) based onhistory. The Alta racing car company of Surbiton produced advanced aluminium
engines and Formula one racing cars from the 1930s onwards.
Famous particularly for powering HWM racing cars They really were the Cosworth
of their day. The Morris minor was revolutionary in many ways except for it's
pre war side valve engine. Alta produced an overhead valve engine conversion
which increased power by 40%. This is a rare surviving example believed to be
one of less than 20 examples remaining. This car was recently discovered having
been structurally restored over 20 years ago and garage stored since. It runs
and drives and has many new parts including a complete wiring loom and working
semaphore indicators. A huge history file accompanies the car including the
original engine conversion invoice from Alta. A rare opportunity to purchase a
genuine collectors item.
Please call to discuss - you could spend low £100's to achieve a daily drive or a few £1000's to bring back very well indeed.
