I think the seller uses a little artistic licence in the description

"Bought years ago and never used, dry stored so perfect condition.."

And he also sells the large bulkhead grommet for the hose as

"From the Morris dealer years ago, no bags...long since gone"

im going to suggest to gordan that he changes his name to morris dealer,

he can put his prices up then!!!


im changing my name by deed pole to 'the downton dealership'

'this car was bought from the downton dealership..........'

That particular seller's been flogging repro parts from Minispares/Minisp*rt et al for years at inflated prices, he used to go under the name " CA2S7.." something or other ( I presume it's changed to avoid the tax man !). Intentionally misleading descriptions aside I'd say good luck to him for selling widely available repro parts to numpties for twice the price who just can't be bothered to price match ! Beats working !

Here a nice cylinder head!

it needs a good refurbishement! but nice head!

cheers guys

Looks like at least 1 rocker pedestal step is broken. Look at pedestal no. 2 (cracked?) and number 4 (missing a chunk of alloy near the stud hole?). Missing valve guides may also mean they fell off.

Hmmm. I'm missing something here. Or am I.??

Nope, these are getting rare, they were standard on our 1100 Special & Special GT,
but ours had chrome nuts, with a attached Grey plastic washer.

I had to search in order to make up a complete setup, for my Moms Min, and that was almost 10 years ago.

I have dozens of them.....You could get them for free on flea markets years ago as nobody wanted those caps. Looks like I have something special on the shelf then. How times change.

Albeit a fibreglass one ..........

That Speedwell head doesn't look too bad. Its like the ones I used to buy & refurbish. If it goes for less than about £300 there is some profit in it once it's restored. It doesn't seem to be suffering much worse than the average Speedwell head.

Very nice

This looked a genuine old car. If the selling price is genuine it looks good for woody owners.

Yes I did see that one. You could probably still make a profit breaking it. You would need a brush and shovel to collect it !

Lots of money and lots of incorrect details

I didn't think Australia were still assembling CKD cars as late as 1967? Surely building their own by then, with the wind-up windows and many other differences?
