The Traveller estate version of Alec Issigonis' outstandingly successful Minor first appeared in 1953 in Series II form, continuing when the range was updated in 1956 as the Minor 1000 with the 948cc A-Series engine. In 1962 the Minor underwent its final increase in engine capacity (to 1,098cc) and from then onwards remained virtually unchanged until the last model - a Traveller - rolled off the production line in April 1971. The practical Traveller remained popular to the end, and today the model enjoys an affectionate and enthusiastic following.
This Morris Minor Traveller Deluxe is an older restored example, retaining good condition replacement wood frame. Recent servicing in June 2019 included fitment of safety belts and a new wiring loom. The vendor rates the car as good in all respects, however the clutch is slipping and will require replacement. Offered with some history and a V5C Registration Certificate.
