Morris Minor Van

In 1985 I was in Copenhagen, Denmark were I stopped to photograph this Morris Minor van.
The Morris Minor Traveler was one that I always liked although I understand the wood restoration
is not easy. Just the thing for those narrow British roads.

Very unusual/rare ! - I always wanted to put a small block Ford in one of these for a street/sleeper ! 8-)

This post brings back fond memories.
In 1958, I graduated college and began my first paid teaching assignment.
I bought a used Morris Minor Woodie. It was a sedan.
After a year or so, I had mechanical problems, and I removed the head,
took it to a shop, where they ground the valves.
I reinstalled the head and kept it for a few more years.
Thanks for reminding me.

We voyaged down the River Shannon in 2010, stopping to explore towns along the river. I was astonished to find this MM in seemingly perfect condition.

I'm an old drag racer and had a similar thought when I first bought the car 25 yrs ago. I am a chevy guy so it would have been a 283 small block. After starting to work on it I thought it would be better served to keep it stock and restore it. Thanks for your response, I just joined the site because I just bought a canon 80-D with a 35-135 lens and a 55-250 lens after the fact found out it was grey market and joined the site for some opinions. It arrived and everything was in canon boxes and seems ok. I guess the only downside is the US warranty from canon is not there. There is a 1 yr warranty from the seller. I have been reading the manual for four days now, a lot to learn if I don't want to use on AF all the time.
Thanks Again

I bought a right-hand drive 1954 MM convertible when I started grad school in Maryland in 1960 and drove it for about 3 years. Not very reliable but very easy to repair.

Bought one with a Vauxhall Viva motor in it. Went like a rocket but the brakes were totally inadequate!!
