Morris J-Type.
More information on this Morris:
I'd gone with a friend to view this unrestored Morris J Type. The condition was not brilliant but was probably restorable. The lower body rot looks to have been removed already by angle grinder. These J-Types are sought after now so perhaps this one survived.
This section of oldclassiccar is full of photographs showing a mix of unrestored, derelict, abandoned, and scrapped old cars. Some cars are with enthusiasts awaiting restoration, others are dumped or seen in breakers yards. I don't have any more information on the classic Morris above, so all news regarding what happened to it, or the rescue of this particular J-Type would be much appreciated.
All the photos, including this picture of an old Morris J-Type, are shown as a reminder of how old cars go to look once past their first flush of youth. Some of the scrapyards in this archive no longer exist, others perhaps survive but don't allow you to walk around them. And those that you can still get in probably don't have many classics in them any more. For more photos like this one of the J-Type, and similar old Morriss, please visit the main scrapyard & scrap cars image page.
