SUMMARY
A classic 1930s saloon from long-term ownership and on offer at No Reserve.
DESCRIPTION
- Powered by a Morris UB-Series 918cc four-cylinder side-valve with a three-bearing crankshaft and single SU carburettor generating 23.5bhp
- Introduced in 1938, the Series II featured a painted grille surround and 'Easiclean' wheels
- Finished in black with a maroon interior, this example has clearly been restored some years ago
- Recently removed from some 15 years in storage. The engine is free and does turn but no attempt has been made to start or run the Morris, therefore full recommissioning will be required

- Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to appreciate the potential on offer
