Description

1964 Morris Minor 1000 Traveller
Registration no. Unregistered
Chassis no. 1086234
Engine no. DMAUH12483

By this time the Minor was in Series II form with an 803cc overhead-valve A-Series engine in place of the original 918cc sidevalve unit. In 1956 the Minor 1000 featuring an enlarged (948cc) engine and an improved gearbox appeared, the newcomer being readily distinguishable from the preceding 'split screen' model by virtue
