SUMMARY
Last year of production, 1,802cc Bullnose, fresh from a comprehensive restoration with only a handful of miles since.
DESCRIPTION
- One of the best known and most readily recognised of Vintage-era cars, the 'Bullnose' Morris had its roots in the Edwardian era
- Painstakingly restored with around £30,000 invested to bring this handsome Morris back to life
- During the restoration, it was established that the chassis was beyond repair so a 1924 chassis was sourced in great condition
- Bespoke hand-crafted Ash frame and aluminium panels by The Cooke Group of Leicester
- Most of the car was supplied in boxes and mechanically rebuilt by our engineer vendor
- The Bullnose Club offered endless help in registering the Morris back on the road
- Supplied with a huge history file with, photographic evidence of the restoration, some lovely period photos, the original 'buff' logbook, 1952 tax disc, lots of receipts for parts and work carried out and a couple of maintenance manuals
- Lovingly and accurately rebuilt, with only a handful of miles since, this is almost a 'brand new' old Bullnose at a fraction of the cost of its build
- NB: The car has all the cut panels for the door cards just to be finished off, and the hood frame has been restored but will require covering
