1926 Morris Cowley ‘Bullnose’ Open Two-Seater with Dickey
Details
First registered in the UK on 10 August 1926, we know relatively little of the history of this Morris Cowley Open Two-Seater - nothing until the 1970’s when it came into the ownership of a couple of long-term keepers in Wales, before passing to a Somerset-based vintage car enthusiast in 2021 and then being acquired by a Jersey based owner in 2022.
The car has clearly received much attention and restoration work in the not too distant past - to judge from its excellent appearance – but we have no record of how much work was carried out.
The engine used in this generation of Cowley was a 1500 cc, side-valve 4-cylinder, mated to a 3-speed gearbox. This produced around 27 bhp and endowed the car with a respectable top speed of around 50 mph. The car runs and drives very well, with stopping provided by rod and cable-operated drum brakes.
The body of the car is very smart and tidy – Maroon paintwork with black fenders in very good condition. The interior has been fully re-upholstered throughout at some point and remains in excellent shape.
A very popular and distinctive vintage motor car in excellent condition, offering a true vintage driving experience. It is ready to be used for club runs, parades and displays.
The Morris is currently Jersey registered and we can assist with shipping and importation processes if required.
