This car was used by a judge at the special court in Den Bosch. Includes maintenance booklet manuals and spare parts. Registration certificate is unfortunately missing. Which the Marktplaats advert hardly mentions. Quote Is van een berijdende rechter in denbosch geweest in 1947 I think that the word berijdende is misspelt.

It would appear that the documentation has been obtained. Yes, this is a rare, completely original lhd Morris that was one of the few models that could be had new here so shortly after the war (that is, if you got permission. Like many things cars were scarce, and you were only allowed to buy one if you really needed it). Spelling of the seller is shit, he probably means "rijdende rechter". Not only is the patina ruined and did he pick an awful colour (turquoise on an austere post war Morris, really?), he simply painted directly over the rust so no, this won't stop it rusting.

And then it totally lost drive a short while later, presumably the friction material just gave up. Therefore the only option I had was to chop it in at a bombsite dealer and drive away in a Micra they had there and then 🙁 Gave them the keys and V5 for the Rover, they knocked £100 off the Micra and they picked it up from the side of the road Last I ever saw of it, until I saw it go through a police auction a couple of years later completely smashed up which was a massive kick in the teeth Somebody did the clutch to preserve it, then it got ruined anyway. I'm not normally sentimental to any car, but I thought of it more as a classic that was also usable everyday transport. Rant over. Just had to get that off my chest 😅 michael t and grogee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd want to know what the health of the gearbox, radiator and rear discs/wheel bearings were before bidding that much. I know he's said it was a project, but what work does it need? The glass looks good but there's some serious blooming on that roof; what's the rest of the car like in the dry? I'm not trying to shit on it, but these cars rack up massive bills if certain things are wrong. That car is like mine, a phase 2 (single airbag) car. These cars use 290mm vented rear discs that are shared only with the 2005/2006 Impreza WRX STi gravel rally car. They're circa £300 for a new pair and it's 50/50 if they can be lathed. All the parts books list SVX rear discs as 260 mm solids; these were only fitted to the 1992-3/4 non-airbag (phase 1) cars. All the shit that you read of later cars being 'slower' is nonsense, the mapping never changed. None of them can do 155mph as standard. BTW, he mentions 'VW' in the listing because a firm in the US called SmallCar developed conversion kits for T25s/T3s.
