Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 1960 Morris Minor Delivery
Van for your consideration. This Morris Minor Van is a stunningly
restored piece of British automotive history. Beneath its cheerful
exterior lies a 1275cc inline-4 motor paired with a 4-speed manual
transmission, providing a lively and engaging driving experience.
Originally a California native, this van enjoyed the dry climate
for most of its life before being brought to Michigan five years
ago, where it has been garage-kept and lovingly maintained. Coming
from 36 years of single ownership, it stands as a testament to
careful stewardship and enduring appeal.
The exterior, finished in a wonderful black paint, is adorned with
custom "Special Delivery" graphics that add a playful character
while celebrating the van's utilitarian heritage. The interior
features green leather seats that are as comfortable as they are
visually striking, complemented by the thoughtful addition of
Dynamat sound insulation during its comprehensive restoration ten
years ago. Mechanical upgrades include power brakes with front disc
brakes, significantly improving drivability without detracting from
its classic essence. The functioning heater adds practicality for
cooler climates, making this van as suitable for a Sunday drive as
it is for a vintage-themed event.
The Morris Minor Van has long been celebrated for its versatility
and charm. Originally introduced as a commercial vehicle in the
late 1940s, it served countless small businesses and artisans
across Britain. Designed by Sir Alec Issigonis, the van offered
dependable performance and surprising cargo capacity, all while
sharing the delightful styling of the Morris Minor car range. Over
the years, it became an icon of British streets, renowned for its
reliability and affordability. Today, the Morris Minor Van remains
a beloved collectible, and this example, with its well-executed
restoration and subtle modern touches, offers a unique opportunity
to own a piece of automotive history. Please call or email with any
questions or for additional information.
