1933 MORRIS 10/4 AMAZING CONDITION AND HISTORY
 
 

Announced in the late summer of 1932, the Morris 10/4 surprised it's rivals by virtue of it's superior Lockheed hydraulic brakes, most family saloons of the period continuing to rely on mechanical systems. The four cylinder side valve engine drove via a 3 speed gearbox and in most other respects, the 10 was entirely convential.This example benefits from a four speed gearbox. This model was extremely successful, helpng Morris establish a commanding presence in the incresingly important 10hp market sector. The 10/4 provided a generous amount of accomadation for this type of car (identical to the 12 in all respects save for the latters engine) with ample legroom in the rear compartment. The 4 door saloon version we offer here was first registered in Birmingham on the 11th of July 1933 and was supplied  by Morris agent Frank Whitworth Ltd of Birmingham. The history file contains the original bill of sale (Total cost £169.10 shillings) for the car to a Mr. G. Williams of Perry Bar,together with the original Morris Motors Guarantee and even the owner's driving licence dated 1927. According to the accompanying buff log book Mr. Williams was to keep the car until at least 1950, at which time he left the car in his will to his local church. Also on file is a history search by the DVLA detailing a list of owners going back to 1979. At some time in the last 15 years the car has been restored,repainted and the interior re trimmed by Bevan & Co of Cheltenham to a very high standard. The Morris has the usual rear window blind, working sun roof,ignition isolator switch and rear luggage rack with a period trunk.


The car would grace any serious Morris collection and is ready to show.
