"Barn Find"

Post by **SteveandWilliam** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 11:03 pm

Driving round Hereford recently I noticed this split-screen under some corragated iron outside a farm on Upper Hergest Ridge, near Kington. Looked good, but the spring-hangar mountings were rusted. Anyone know it? Own it? Perhaps we should have a Lonely Morris Club for Morrises looking for restorers. If it hasn't already found one, of course. [/img]<br>

Looks in pretty good condition to me, is it 2-door or 4?
I'd take it if I had the time, money and experience

Friendly people in that neck of the woods, why don't you stop and enquire

Can't have been there for long, it looks in pretty good nick

Is it for sale? (Not that I am interested, as it is lacking in certain crucial attributes, viz a separate chassis and a box van back
