We do not have a great deal of information on this Morris, but from what we can glean, it started out in 1928 as a 11.9 hp Light van finished in Green and Black.
Later in life we think it was converted into a three-door, four-seat saloon and then a cabriolet conversion was started but remains unfinished.
We have photographs that show the painted and refurbished chassis and engine taken in 1994 and another dated 1999 showing what looks like a new, probably ash, framework in situ.
This is very much a car that needs to be viewed so that you can draw your own conclusions as to its condition and then form your own plans as to its future.
Would you carry on with the cabriolet conversion or would you go back to the original van configuration? With what looks like a decent chassis, the choice of bodywork is yours.
We have some old registration documents including a green registration book and various other interesting notes in the history file.
