The Morris Minor Van versions were popular with the British Post Office. These had front wings made of rubber, in order to put up with the often unforgiving hectic situations in which they were expected to work. The Minor series II and Minor 1000 versions had the 2 door van variant. They were manufactured at Oxford and Birmingham in England.
We know some people drive old cars for fun and bear the obvious difficulties of the old machinery as being part of the game. It’s said apart from the owners of the very early old Minors, the slow old side-valve Morris Minor’s, most people with Morris 1000s specially do not consider their cars as being mobile museum pieces.
They consider them to be best suited for the 1980s. This sets the Morris Minor apart from other old cars manufactured in the ‘forties; thanks to the ability of Sir Alec Issigonis. The Morris Minor has very few of the drawbacks of cars belonging to this period. Morris Minor unlike most of its contemporaries had light steering and still-pleasant road manners.
