Used 1960 Morris Minor Van

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.
