My father and I rescued some cars from a shed last week and as promised here are some pictures of the rescue. The barn has some cars in it from the late proprietor of the local Vauxhall dealership and his wife has asked us to move the cars and sell them for her.
The first car was a Morris Minor with approx 600 miles on the clock from new. Yes I said 600. The Vauxhall dealership was a Morris dealership beforehand and this car was crashed a few months after being sold (it clipped a wall aparently and rolled into another wall). It was supposed to be reshelled but wasnt so was placed in this barn in 1970 and its sat there ever since. His son told me that when it was parked there it had less than 600 miles on the clock. Amazing!
Remarkably it freewheeled and we moved it into position with a trolley jack:
On the trailer
Back home, the tyres were pumped up after this picture and all retain air!
Though dusty, the interior is in very good condition. I found needles and drugs under the back seat (the cars was used by a vet)
The inside of the doors are, to all intents and purposes, like new.
Roof damage is pretty severe
Found an old work receipt dated 1969
Also in the shed are a Triumph Spitfire, PC Cresta and an FB Victor. We only moved the Victor yesterday and are collecting the rest over easter.
The Victor appears too good to break, and has an almost full service history book in the glove compartment. The engine is siezed but it rolls and the ignition system seems to work. Please see advert in for sale section for more details.
The Morris has already been sold to someone whom I believe is going to restore it as a convertible and the Victor is now for sale. I will bring you photos of the others when we get them. Enjoy!
! Looking forward to the next cars/photos. 
), nowadays there are specialists who can make the 1500 reliable enough to last as much as 40-50k between rebuilds but it's still a safer bet as an ornament than as a means of propelling a car.
