In Brief:

• Project example of a Minor Convertible conversion
• Finished in Old English White over a Red interior with a matching soft top
• A great basis for some restoration and recommissioning work

Auctioneer’s Notes:

A fantastic opportunity to acquire a 1964 Morris Minor Convertible, offered as a rewarding restoration project with the added benefit of being a running and driving example. Finished in the ever-popular Old English White, complemented by a red duo-tone interior and red soft top, this example offers excellent basis for improvement. It should be noted that this is not a factory-built convertible, but a later conversion from a 4-door saloon, as verified by the chassis number.

Maintenance & Condition:

Having been off the road and dry stored for many years, the vehicle will now require recommissioning and restoration work to bring it back to a good standard. The car does run and drive, however, the brakes will require attention before any regular road use. As expected with a project of this nature, buyers should anticipate further mechanical and cosmetic work.

History:

While detailed historical records are not outlined, the car has clearly spent a prolonged period off the road in dry storage.

The Model:

The Morris Minor Convertible is one of Britain’s most recognisable and beloved classics, originally designed by Sir Alec Issigonis. Produced between 1948 and 1971, it became a staple of British motoring thanks to its simplicity, reliability, and timeless styling. While this example is a converted car rather than a factory-built convertible, it still captures the essence of open-top Minor motoring.

Sale Insight:

Project examples such as this offer an accessible entry point into classic car ownership, with the added appeal of open-top usability once restored. With strong demand for Morris Minor Convertibles, this example presents a worthwhile project with clear potential for both enjoyment and future value enhancement.
