oddsox ◊ 2014-05-05 14:57	Morris Minor in season 4.13 at 19:31. Pretty sure it's a 2-door, probably a 1000. No idea the year, any help? pretty impressive array of background vehicles in the episode including: --a '51-ish Packard, --some kind of foreign roadster I recognize but can't name (in traffic 1st scene at Hughes market) --probably lots more I've missed. The parking lots are filled w/cars and trucks recognized from previous episodes. Still looking for that Edsel. ---- dsl wrote It's an early one for rear wing shape, before 1957+ 1000 version. I can't tell if original 1949+ [MM] or 52+ [Series II], but may not be separable from this angle without view of grille. Thanks -- I'm not too good on English cars. A fair amount of them in background shots. Anyone seen a Rolls or Bentley? -- Last edit: 2014-05-05 15:02:52
Sunbar ◊ 2014-05-05 15:25	Probably Series II (1953 to 1956) with 803cc engine? Has the early, larger clearance rear wheelarch that was changed with the introduction of the Minor series III (948cc 37bhp) in October 1956 I think.
