REWARD! Morris 1969: HAVE YOU SEEN THIS CAR?

Desperately seeking A-Series Satisfaction again in the form of this 1969 Morris Mini Mark 2.

Last seen in Northern New Jersey in 2009.



Sold to a Swiss-American Gentleman of substance.

Any leads to its current whereabouts would be much appreciated.

A not insignificant reward is available to the finder.

Cheers

You should know the serial number, your old insurance paperwork or agent would know it. Do a VIN search to see if it is still on the road.

Apologies for the delayed reply Mr. RockAz -very busy this side of pond.

Sadly I lost all the records for the little buzzbox c/o Tropical Storm Irene back in 2011.

They were in there somewhere.
2nd garbage bag on the left.




A shocking affair. Even the Red Cross came to town.



Pretty sure Morris was on higher ground by then.
Mendham NJ perhaps?

Good job. He would have been washed away on our street.



Funnily enough I'm not in contact with my old Insurance Broker these days

Cheers Whatty

I know how you feel. There's a '62 E type BRG roadster out there running around loose I never should have let go of some 40 years ago. There's a knot in my gut that will never go away. My li'l R52 is doing his best to assuage the pain.

Hi Mr Fly'n Brick

Its not like the damn thing was fast or anything.
In fact driving it was a bit of a trial.

Exhibit A.
Big bore exhaust manifold.



Exhibit B.

Twin S.U's.



Should have paid David Vizard's Bible more attention.

Bloody cars. Can't live with them.
Appears you can't find them either.

Cheers, Whatty.

It is too bad we don't have a website like this for the US, or do we?

You could narrow down to which state has one on the road and work out something with the DMV or BMV in each state. Probably wont be even a hundred,...
