Description from the seller

Rare Minor 1000 Cabriolet
barn find
Fuel pump new
New battery

In the ID, entry Veteran vehicle / classic car (see pictures)
I have a rare Morris Cabriolet, which is now 65 years old and a true barn find. After draining the old gasoline and replacing the fuel filter, we filled it with fresh gasoline. A new battery was also installed, and the engine started immediately after 25 years in the barn without any issues. Although the body still needs restoration, the engine runs like clockwork. Additionally, all spare parts are still available for order and delivery. However, it is important to note that we have not conducted a full workshop test, meaning the brakes and other components still need to be checked. The primary focus was initially only on ensuring that the engine runs smoothly.

The Morris Cabriolet has been in possession for a full 60 years and is in good condition regarding the bodywork and paint. The engine was successfully started: the carburetor and fuel filter were cleaned, fresh gasoline was added, and the vehicle started immediately and runs perfectly.

Regarding the other components, such as the brakes, further inspection is still necessary. A complete workshop test has not been conducted. All additional details and the condition of the vehicle are visible in the 138 photos, which provide a comprehensive insight.


The vehicle is sold internationally.
The buyer bears the costs for transport and customs clearance.

Swiss vehicle registration document available; the customs clearance and transportation must be organized by the buyer themselves.

The vehicle is in Switzerland and can be viewed on site at any time.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
