Up for sale is my 1959 Morris Minor, built to compete in the 2 Litre Sports Sedan race category.
Never got a chance to race it in the class but I've done four test and tune days at Sandown in it.
Fastest time was 1:46.08 around Sandown but with some suspension tuning and the right driver that time would be lowered significantly.
The car is powered by a Toyota 4AGE with a Toyota T50 Gearbox behind it.

Car weighs 800kg without driver.
Trailer also comes with the car. It is a single axle tilt trailer that weighs 400kg. Custom built to suit the car, but will fit anything small that weighs up too 1000kg.
Max GVM of trailer is 1500kg.
Don't have the time to race it anymore and very sad to see the car go but I would love to see it driven competitively.
Will also sell the original engine and gearbox with the car. The engine swap for the 4age was not very invasive on the car so it would be easy to swap it back to stock and race in other categories.
If you're interested I have photos from 2012 when the original restoration of the car was done and I used the car as a daily driver and even more photos from 2017 onwards as it changed into a race-car.
For footage of the car around a track, please search Prime Motorsport on Youtube and there are a few videos of it.
