Just noticed this and looks like an interesting punt at not too much money. Appears not to be rotten in the rear wings as these usually are.
I have no connection with the vendor.

Hopefully a dedicated Morris fan will dive in and rescue it. Lot of work though, and still a bit pricey isn't it for the condition?

Don't see many about but first thought is the price is a bit high.

Way too high - the market hath spoken.
1st Listing : 0 bidders at £1,299
2nd listing : 0 bidders at £1,299
3rd listing : 0 bidders at £1,250
4th listing : 0 bidders at £1,250

The massive price drop of £49 didn't move the market.
Why didn't they start the auction at a lower price and then set their reserve accordingly? That would have allowed the listing party to judge market interest and would have saved them c.£75 in listing fees for the 3 non-runner listings, at least!
