Description:

Well-Cared For: This 1972 Morris A60 Suntor Camper is a testament to the restoration it has recieved. Originally manufactured as a camper in the renowned Suntor factory in Great Torrington, North Devon and among the last of its kind, it was constructed using the robust Morris Half Ton van as its base vehicle, just before the introduction of the Sherpa van era.

Great Maintenance: The current owner acquired this A60 SunTor in April 2017 when it was a non-running collection of parts, having been off the road for years. Work on the Camper spanned four years, during which every aspect of the vehicle was looked. From a complete strip-down to bare metal to sourcing period-correct replacements and refurbishing original components, this Morris A60 has been well scrutinised.

Comes with Everything: No detail was too small to escape attention during the restoration. From the front suspension to the rear axle and the wiring loom, virtually everything was addressed. Original parts and trims were carefully refurbished or replaced as needed, ensuring this camper retains its authentic charm.

Classic Appeal: Finished in a captivating French navy blue with an old English white roof and matching wheels, this Morris A60 Suntor Camper embodies the era it is from. Tinted windows provide privacy while adding practicality to it’s use as a camper. The reconfigured rear seating arrangement allows for versatility, whether you want to enjoy the view with the doors open or cook while seated at the rear.

Mixing Old and New: To enhance usability, a series of thoughtful modifications have been made. The cylinder head has been adapted to run on unleaded fuel, an electronic ignition has been installed, and an alternator has replaced the old dynamo. An electric fuel pump ensures a consistent fuel supply, and an inline fuel filter has been added for reliability. Brighter beam headlights and reflectors improve visibility, while additional wiring provides USB ports, plug-in fridge capability, and a power inverter for modern convenience.
