Austin 1800 Ex Longbridge press fleet car and ex Special Tuning prepared rally car. POH 703G was prepared by Special Tuning for the 1970 Daily Mirror World Cup Rally. It was used as a press car for the Daily Mirror to follow and report on the event.

The car had been reshelled using a very good donor Mk2 shell. A lot of work has been carried out on the shell. For example:

• All underneath has been resprayed and covered in protective oil. (Dinitrol) All cavities have been sprayed in Dinitrol.
• All fuel and brake lines run in side the car.
• Front suspension had modified mini suspension mountings and Koni shock absorbers fitted also MGB bump stops. Rear suspension has modified carriers and Special Tuning bump stops.
• I have the original engine, Rear seat, Aley roll bar (partially fitted).
• Original dash board but is in poor condition complete with modified Austin Westminster heater control for the advance and retard to change the timing on the go.
• Rear aluminium bulk head.
• Original alternator with modified cover.
• Also have the original hydrolastic pump that goes on the rear parcel shelf and container that goes in the boot, plus the Special fuel filter.
• Also a new Austin Westminster fuel tank which goes across the boot. The original fibre glass protective cover that goes over the fuel tank.
• Heritage certificate and copies of the old log books, original commission and body numbers. Plus new copies.

This is just a brief outline of some of the parts there are many more but too much to list. I am not asking silly money for it but open to sensible offers.

Morris 2200 automatic, Damask Red. I have owned the car for over four years and during that time, I have had the carbs renovated by Scotcarbs, fitted electronic ignition, replaced brake slave cylinders and Flexi pipes. The Spanish Rose red seats have been professionally cleaned and repaired. I have installed a new gear change selector unit and four new tyres. She runs well but a change of circumstances forces the sale! The car is now fitted with a DAB radio. The car could do with the paint being polished. The car is garaged in Dumbarton, Scotland but I live in Stranraer south west Scotland so if anyone wants to view or test drive I need to contact a friend to arrange it.

Wolseley 18/85S, 54,698 miles. MOT to 01/07/2027. Mileage looks genuine based on paperwork and online checks but not guaranteed. Has the twin-carb MGB engine. Full restoration around 2019, many new panels, no rust and has been welded in parts underneath and undersealed. I would say it is in very good condition, starts on the button and drives well. Interior is also in excellent condition, speaker hole on dash has been sorted. During my ownership, servo and callipers refurbished by Contract Auto Engineering and pads replaced. Fully serviced by me, oil, filters, rad flushed, new hoses, new plugs etc. everything works, no known leaks. It has power steering which is very light. New tyres, window/door rubbers etc. Electronic ignition, new quality battery January 26. Suspension recently serviced with one unit replaced. Large history file with receipts going back years, handbooks and workshop manual.

Paint finish is good, but has some minor “dust or bits” in the finish. Machine polish would help. Passenger door and boot won’t lock with the key for some reason; new door lock available, all door locks can be locked from inside. Clock not working. Little Wolseley front badge light temperamental, poor connection. Chrome work very good, wheel trims have a few marks on, wheels are painted to match car. The “S” side trims are not attached; I prefer them off and was going to put a gold pin stripe on instead and make some magnetic catches to attach strips for shows. The side strips are rust free and will polish up well, a few spares also.

Has had an insurance claim, category N no structural damage, made on the 21/06/2023. Damage was to nearside front lower corner looking closely at lower front valance and front bumper bracket, nothing serious, have new bumper bracket not fitted. No sign of damage to chassis. Any inspection welcome. Asking for offers for quick sale as it's currently having to be kept outside. A very rare comfortable car that can keep up with modern traffic. First to see will buy, please no time wasters or silly offers, would prefer viewing before offers if possible, it is a 55 year old classic and sold as seen. See video and photos, please email for more details.

Wolseley Six, owned by me for 8+ years. V5C in my name. Drives very well but possibly could do with a tune up and brake servo/brake cylinder may need looking at because sometimes the brakes stick after a while but then free themselves to allow you to carry on, but still stop and work fine. Bodywork is not concours but still presentable, has a few paint blisters/surface rust blisters coming through. Interior still original including carpets but again presentable. Front seats re-covered in a corduroy fabric and re-foamed giving a comfortable seat. Test drive and inspection welcome from Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire.
