What doors are common to morris minors?

Post by TEDJordan »

What models share their doors?

Am I right in thinking that the front doors off a saloon/convertible are the same as a traveller, and that the pick-up, van and 4 door all share their doors? (fronts obviously)

and are there any changes to these through the years? i.e. shape of the inner B post where the escutcheon is etc?

any help appreciated!

Two door saloons have the same doors as convertibles and travellers.
Four doors cars are the same as pick ups and vans.
Older and more confused than I could ever imagine possible.

And to add to what Peetee has put, there were no changes to the shape of the posts :wink:

there were changes to the passenger door on travellers and saloons when the passenger side got a key for the door lock. Early Series MMs didnt have a lip for the weather strip on the outside either.

They did not even bother moving the lock for LHD export cars, you had to unlock the passenger door and lean across to open the driver's door. And people still bought them.
