On the occasional sunday i see an old timer in a morris major. It looks like its in very good condition. My next door neighbour has a family friend who is the morris minor guy. He has 8 of them at the moment. 5 are in various states of restoration, once done he will on sell those ones. He has a concourse minor 1000, a concourse 850 and his hot rod. Well, its the one he actually drives. Its a 51 (i think thats what he said), so where the headlights are still in the grill not on the guards. It has a 'big block' 1200 from a morris marina with dual carbs, celica 5 speed. Interior is immaculate, only modification in there is he added seatbelts, but thats allowable in my book. Morris guy claims that its the only one he has that can do freeway speed. I'd beleive that. Its a real nice car.
