I can't believe you paid $1,750 for the Traveller that in that condition (condition 3 to restoration project standard) are fetching €500 in Europe. The bonnet release is a pull under the dashboard next to where the steering column goes through the firewall. All panels for the underside are available but the sill structure (what you call the rockers in the States are complicated to do and you need to brace the door apertures or the thing will break in two. Do not remove the timber until most of the cutting and welding is done. then take timber off to replace. with car stripped to the shell before the timber is replaced, it can be acid dipped or grit blasted prior to painting. Good luck with it, I was a specialist restorer of these and did about 200 restorations,
The Morris Minor will be a valuable car restored. Thank you for sharing!
Just wait until the ash frame has to be restored or replaced..and then u will understand valuable..the MG is exactly what i was thinking...great donor..
@@fotorabiaAsh frame and rear guttering a real specialist job haven't met a mechanic who could do it properly yet or want to do another it's like herding cats result I'll fitted lined up back doors and lots of filler. Morris Traveller assembled by 6to7 yr apprenticed cabinet makers in factory originally .
Plenty of places in the UK can supply a quality replica ash frame kit. Not an easy job to fit but not rocket science either.👍
@@matthewbrittain2919 Absolutely..you can by a complete ash frame for just under a grand...
@@richardmessenger9474 Where? A complete kit (Woodies and Traveling Timbers are roughly the same price) is +- £2000 ($2,800) delivered to America. Shipping is +- £580 ($812) of that. The suppliers of good kits are around 4 months out. Then there's the welding that it will need. Repair panels are all available but there too shipping is not cheap.
You can get everything for the morris traveller van in ENGLAND !!
Two good buys especially rare Morris Minor and red Chevy Metro has a good engine.
Nice buy on the Morris. MG means Morris Garages. My first car was a 1959 Morris Oxford Saloon
I bought a 98 Metro used, not running. Drove it for three years. On a windy day, you cannot accelerate ascending an overpass. I cannot imagine driving this in mountains. 40 MPG....still got some bearings and seals left over from work performed. Sold the car for $1200 10 years ago. Everything worked. Some folks were adding turbo's to these three cylinders, yeah, that was a thang.
Hi from the UK, if the Morris is going back on the road, make sure the front suspension trunnions are kept well greased, if neglected the wheel will eventually collapse up into the wheel arch😯. Am enjoying watching your vids btw👍👍
seen that a few times in the 80's
Good buy, I think you can get new wood kits for it from the UK. Great number plate too. 👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺.
Love listening to your accent! You sound just like “Forest Gump”, priceless,, cool Vlog, cheers from Downunder ❤️🦘🦘🦘
That metro and that Morris will be great when gas is $5/gal......
Big fan of the channel,so glad you ended up with the Minor.It'll make great future content.
I'm a Mini owner. You did very well with the Morris Minor. (also like the five speed Chevy too - I like all five speeds)
tHanks for the video
Great video, I love the long ones!
I watched one of the car restoration shows done in England,and one episode they restored a small British wood wagon.There was still a company in England that made the wood for it,and it was pretty cool how the back roof panel came off,then dismantle the wood,.
Morris Minor is awesome 👍
I agree with the comments regarding the Morris traveller body. New body kits are easy to find online and have been available since the travellers were new... 😁 They were also available as great little van. When I was still in high school I had a job driving a brand new one which was one of the last Morris minors built in the World.
What year was that Morris van?
Good afternoon Tim, I hope you and your Family had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Thank You for sharing this Auction with us!!! Awesome Buys!!! That Metro will make someone a reliable Runner!!! The Morris Minor is in unbelievably great shape for its age and the lack of rust is "Out of this World"!!! It's as though it was stored inside for 50 years..... WOW!!!! Thank You again and God's Speed Sir!!!!!!!
Two great buys. The Morris is a cool little wagon. The Texaco sign with the heavy metal stand was a sharp one. 😎👍🇨🇦
they used that blue california plate till 1982.. i grew up where that car was sold from.. pretty cool.. a buddy of mine had one of those geos with 250k back in 2015 that started knocking.. so he thought it would be fun to run it into a 2 foot high round rock.. well... he went over the rock.. knocking the oil pan in and leaving a few good dents in the floor.. was pretty funny watching him get out of the car
Morris is a nice find
That Morris will make a great project!
open the hood latch by opening the pass side glovebox and there is a pull in there.
For the Morris, all parts are available aftermarket, if you choose to fully renovate her.
My good lady wife is from Glendale, the dealership has gone now. That Morris will be a super restoration project. I'll expect to see it in Monterey in a couple of years.
I was surprised it sold for as much as it did, but I also think you bought the most interesting vehicle. I hope you will do some videos on getting it running and driving.
Check my other videos, we tinkered on it, and you will be quite surprised with the results!!
Over 60 yrs old and survived a tornado and the rust worm earned bit of TLC . Hope you found the hood handle inside car,(parcel shelf) .over 1 million moggys made Britain equivalent to VW. Get it running and take it for a drive if it doesn't make you smile sell it on. My 72 Traveller did I hope yours does I would say more parts and advice available than any car made?
The Wood on the Traveler is structural but kits are made in the UK, I think its Ash. It has a BMC B Series motor which was fitted to many Morris, Austin and MG cars, lots of tune up parts for them, drop in a 1275 cc with twin SUs and Zoom :) As we say in the Ole Country, Nice Motor Mate.
That's actually the "A" series engine not the B.
@@nzsaltflatsracer8054 Opps you are correct Sir !!
@@bobparadis8454 Anybody that's old enough to remember this crap is allowed the odd slip up!
This circa 1960 Morris used an A series engine 948 cc.
That Morris Minor would make a crazy hot rod. A sbc with a Blower on it.
hi there great auction wish i had been there , in to jeeps did you happen to hear what that one sold for . thank you john
goodpliers goodbuy had one for 15 years as a daily driver full of rust never mist a beat van model some new tiers get her running some shine juice drive it forever thanks for yor show nz
Cool buys dude!
one of those mini tractors somebody built recently sold at sothebys or someplace for like 45k
Nice little Morris. We had one in Australia in the late '50s. It was just a sedan.
Would have loved to had that Allis grader and Henry pan.
The Morris wgn seems in good shape. Thought someone was gonna outbid you. Maybe worth you doing the floors before flipping it? Those Metros were crazy good on fuel. Very cool scaled little tractors. Modified Jeep, and grader collectable. Neat old bank deposit slips or what ever they were!
that Morris Minor would be a nice one to restore imagine some nice Hickory, walnut or oak on it it can be made pritty
The original timber is Ash
The minor will start with little work, the wood is Ash, there's a guy in the UK that makes pattern wood parts.
At almost 35 years old you finally got your first woody ;-) 45:09 Regards from Ody Slim
My brother gas one of those Morris Minor Travellers in England and my cousin imported one to her home in France
Let's see you do a will it run video on this ...
i could be wrong but those mini tractors there where build by the company for a road salesman's for demo on a small trailer again good videos
That woody shouldn't be as bad as the Nomad that Dan from DD Speedshop is doing/LOL. I think I would try to replicate some of that wood as its just enough to get that bigger dollar bill from. I think its a runner regardless of how it sits now as pieces are still available I think.
YOU NEED TOO RESTORE THAT ALLIS GRADER THE RESALE WILL BE EASY AND WILL BE A FUN EASY PROJECT.
That dozer looks like the one they used in "The grapes of Wrath" movie.
Plenty of Minors still in regular use here in UK...
back in 1956 a friend ad morris minor rag top
Hi
Are you going to be restoring the Morris ?
I’m in the UK and have a 1952 series MM 2 dr that I’m getting ready to go back on the road !
Best wishes
Tim 😊👍
Thanks for stopping by the channel, Tim! I will probably resell the Morris after cleaning it up a bit
We call them Moggy minors in the UK.
That Morris Miner is a Rare style
Fun fact: the original Morris Minor had its head lights on either side the grille. They were forced to change to the current arrangement to export it to the USA. Look for images of Morris Minor Series one to see what they were like.
Interesting to see Morris Traveller in the USA. You were wrong to say that the timber is not structural. Althought the timber on a Mini Traveller was cosmetic, on the Morris Traveller the timber keeps the roof up. The front end and floor are mild steel but from the door pillars back it is aluminium panels and ash timber. The cost of the ash timber kit alone without the fitting kit and the labour is £2,000. They are not worth doing if the timber is gone unless you get the car for nothing.
They still make the wood frame for these over here in the UK
with the morris minor they still make the wood frame at the back that you can buy
The bulldozer was a bargain.
morris should be powered by about an 800 cc flathead four
24.0 green acres had the same ford
THAT METRO SHOULD SELL FAST BECAUSE OF THE GAS AT 50 MILES PER GALLON. YOU WILL MAKE MONEY.
Think the Morris wood is part of structure it's UK 🇬🇧 car nothing to be proud of lol
there's a pull to release hood under the glove box against the firewall ,inside ,for the Morris
I'm sure he has it by now but that pull is on the far right side
Wow, has it got trafficators, in the door panel, must be a 1950's car.
It's more likely those are blank plates as Semaphore Signals weren't allowed in the U.S. and that's apparently an Export model Morris
Hi.Question are those tractors repairable or all of them for scrap?And the bus can you restore what it original was or it's going to cost too much.Rather than that good auction the morris wasn't bad .👌👌👍👍are you ready to sell the morris or are going to keep it
Thanks for stopping by the channel! I have finally gotten the title for the Morris, so it is available. The engine turns and looks like it has a very good chance to run if tinkered on. I would love to get together with you on it. Send me an email, mrgoodpliers1985@gmail.com
I live in Salina what site do you use to find all these auctions
Might buy that geo metro from you if you sell it cheap enough alaways kinda wanted one that one looks like it’s in great shape
Morris would be perfect for an electric drive conversion.
That fiberglass trailer an extra battery pack for the Morris? The metro engine as an emergency generator for the trailer? 😆
The Morris Minor is cool! Imagine it built as a straight axle gasser with Hemi power! I'd call it Major Wood!
Those 2 buzz saws are worth over 1000. Dollars each.
👍👍👍
When you gonna fix your trailer floorboard, Bud ?? Safety first...
I am wondering if after the auction and things still remain, they would contact a scrap guy like Sirus to do a cleanup?
That car older than me and I is 58
34.38 says no title for the geo but at 42.33 you said they had a title for the geo but couldnt find it.
Yes, they had applied for a replacement, which I have now
the selling of the sign was bs, it should have been finial a few times. very annoying, this has happened to me and I just stopped going to auctions.
I'll bet that the MG convertible seats were way too low for the Morris Minor.
🙂👍👏
over in the uk on ebay they fetch in good very good nick 7000 10000 pounds wood work kit about 600 pounds. pass my royal air force driving test in a traveller .
19:20 Allis Chalmers Speed Patrol
You can get ull the parts for that car in the uk
🤔🙂🚘🚗👏👍
😎👍👍🚘🚗
I almost bought a metro until the gulf war caused them to triple the price what could go wrong pull engine and toss it over your shoulder
How much did the Texaco sign sell for
Thing is the moment you die your stuff becomes someone elses.
I would leave it all patinaed, if such a word did exist.
THE AMISH WILL BUY THAT 4 BOTTOM PLOW BECAUSE ITS ON STEEL.
🙂🤝😎🚗🚘🇺🇸👍👏
Bueller.... Bueller.....
if you would sell this morris miner i would love to buy it from you please let me know if you,d sell it or not i,d give you 2500 for it right now for it please get with me on this car
My advice would be dont even think about buying any long playing records with that voice.
