Classic Morris J-Type.
There is always a healthy turnout of Morris J Type (and Austin 101) vans at Tatton Park. The national meeting for J-Types is held at Tatton every year. I know the organisers and occasionally have sneaked my little Ford E83W on to the stand. Early Js were powered by the sidevalve MO saloon engine. This was replaced part-way through production by the 1500cc B series lump and the J was renamed JB.
Morris Books Whether for the J-Type as shown below, or any other type of Morris, it is worth having a look on Amazon for books, DVDs, Videos etc.

If you have any more info or restoration stories about this particular J-Type, or J-Types in general, I'd really like to feature it on oldclassiccar.
I took all these photos at the classic & vintage show held at Tatton Park, in June 2005. The Morris shown above was one of several hundred vehicles held in the grounds of this National Trust property.
