Details
Issigonis' masterpiece, the Minor, was launched in 1948, before BMC were formed and initially utilized the well-proven Morris 918cc side-valve engine. It received the 803cc A series Austin designed engine in 1953, only a year after Austin's merger with Morris had created BMC. Three years later the larger 948cc engine was substituted and the definitive Minor 1000 was created. The commercial variant, modeled here, was known as the "Light Commercial Vehicle" or "LCV" and was built with a chassis aft of the cabin, so that a variety of bodies could be fitted. Limited Edition 2,210 pcs. (with certificate)
