Morris Minor Traveller - The Complete Companion
For 60 years, the Morris Minor Traveller has been a familiar sight in rural and small-town Britain. With its distinctive half-timbered design in an era of sleek steel cars, it was widely used for transporting children, pets, and everyday goods, despite its modest speed.
Ray Newell provides detailed descriptions of the 803cc, 948cc, and 1098cc Traveller models, including production history and specification changes. He explores unique versions such as the Danish-built 1000 Combi, military and police variants, commercial conversions, and one-off designs - including a hearse and a stretched three-door 'Shooting Brake' from the late 1950s, recently restored.
A key challenge for owners is replacing the timber framework, a complex task. This book features step-by-step guidance from specialist Steve Foreman, with 150 photographs covering dismantling, restoration, and replacement.
The final section discusses performance upgrades, including modern engine options, five-speed gearboxes, and improved braking and suspension.
With 450 color and black-and-white images, including specially commissioned photographs of outstanding examples, this book serves as the ultimate guide for Morris Minor Traveller enthusiasts, owners, and restorers.
