Hi, I have seen a Morris Ital near Ilminster in Somerset and am tempted as having one as a daily runner along side the morris - but it's too far to view - anybody near there who could have a look (for a fee if necessary). It's worth a try asking

Interesting - a rare sight now and well worth preserving. Was it a 1.3 or a 1.7?

A 1.3 - but a long trip for me from Stockport if it turns out to be not so good underneath!

Yes - they were v. prone to rot underneath, presumably why there aren't many left.
The 1.7 OHC was a fast one!
