This 1960 Morris Minor 6cwt Panel Van is not a common sight around
town. These vans were built by Morris Motors Limited in England
(and possibly New Zealand) and were for commercial/postal use. The
panel van was based on the Morris Minor 1000 Saloon sedan, but was
built on a separate chassis unlike the uni-body construction of the
Saloon. It had a fiberglass rear shell that provided van storage.
However, none of the panel vans left the Morris factory quite like
this one - this left-hand drive van has been seriously modified for
performance. A full re-spray of Artic White is in excellent
condition and 15" alloy wheels provide nice accents. The custom
interior is fitted with comfortable front bucket seats
reupholstered in tan leather, a refinished dash housing a set of
VDO gauges, tilt-wheel and custom floor shift. The headliner is
excellent, handsome carpeting has been installed and the cargo area
has also been upholstered in matching leather - this interior is
top-shelf. The engine compartment houses a built Chevy 350ci that
is fitted with an Edelbrock aluminum intake, Edelbrock carburetor
and tube headers that exit to a free flowing exhaust. Electrics
have been converted to 12-volt and an aluminum radiator w/electric
fan controls cooling. This mighty small-block is backed by a GM
2-speed Powerglide transmission that provides power to a narrowed
9" Ford equipped with 4.11:1 gearing. The chassis has been
carefully reinforced to handle the additional horsepower and is
equipped with manual steering, manual disc/drum brakes and a
competition fuel cell w/electric fuel pump. This is a very, very
unique package - rest assured, no one else in the neighborhood will
have one of these. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
