1982 registered traveller

My friend has a traveller with a plate on the bulkhead that reads
Engine no 9805
Chassis no 5980
Reg WWL633X
Manufactured by Morris Minor Centre Bath
Does anybody know anything about this vehicle before I approach him to purchase it?

Re: capri lowering blocks

The u bolts will be too wide for the Minor axle. I have a set of new minor lowering blocks and bolts but have changed my axle for an escort one so these are not needed,maybe we could swap if you have the ford set?

Re: 'Q' reg, no free tax, and £450 for an MOT!
