Re: where can you buy a rollover jig specific for a minor
Almost any hub mounted rig that will fit 4 bolt hubs will work.
I have a grumpy's one and have used it on saloons, traveller and LCV. Removal of engine and gearbox makes a good reduction to the loads through the shell / chassis and helps to limit distortion.
Specific to the traveller, if the wood is completely shot, I wouldn't recommend any car roller unless the sills and floorpan are in excellent order. (hub mount or bumper mount rollers are not a good idea if you've just got a wobbly floor pan and litle rear structure!)

There's a rollover jig on ebay at the moment. Not sure if it's a Grumpy's one but it looks similar: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Morris-Minor-roll ... 2c58e8a785
