1967 Morris Minor Pickup Registration no. NYD 139F Chassis no. MAUS-221637 Engine no. 269290FootnotesArguably the fondest-regarded of all Britain's post-war saloons, the Alec Issigonis-designed Morris Minor was launched at the 1948 Motor Show and by January 1961 had sold 1,000,000 units to become the UK's most successful post-war car to date. Morris's first new post-war design, the unitary construction Minor boasted torsion-bar independent front suspension, rack-and-pinion steering, and a four-speed synchromesh gearbox. In 1956 the Minor 1000 with 948cc A-Series engine appeared, and the model received a further capacity boost (to 1,098cc) in 1962. The styling too was revised progressively: the headlamps moving from the radiator grille to the wings on the Series II; the split front screen being superseded by a curved one-piece windscreen on the Minor 1000; and flashing indicators replacing the original semaphore trafficators. The vendor advises us that this 1968-model Minor Pickup has been treated to an extensive restoration by a very well respected Morris restorer. Several thousand pounds have been spent on the rebuild, as evidenced by numerous related bills on file. Described by the vendor as in good condition throughout, this charming Morris commercial comes with its original logbook, service book, current V5C document, and bill of sale from 1967 when it cost £475 new.
