@banger134: I quote aronline: 'The Morris and Austin versions of the J2 were differentiated by their frontal styling, with the former having a pressed steel interpretation of the "inverted heart" grille seen on the J-Type and LD vans, while the latter made do with a plainer, rectangular affair.'
BTW your link shows a military version; is that really yours?

I think there are two possiblities...

That the Morris started with the specific grille design and that later the panel work for both Austin and Morris was standardised on the rectangular design or possibly only the Morris mini-bus version was built at some time with the Austin style grille?

As in banger134's link and here http://ccmv.fotopic.net/p62200072.html


Registration is early 1963 so the later 1622cc version.
