Any ideas

My Morris is a 1960 model, which has full windscreen but split screen wipers, can anyone say if this is rare or just using up the parts still in stock? I have looked through a few books but can't find any mention of this? Thank you.

Looking at Original Morris Minor by Rat Newell it was:

(Oct 63) [that the] windscreen wiper blades [were] lenghtened and now work in tandem

Quite normal and not rare. The splitscreen cars finished about October '56 when they introduced the full screen. These cars still had the "clap hands" type of windscreen wipers until 1964 when they changed the interior fascia, rounded glove box lids, silver ignition surround and the wipers sweeping in the same direction to name but a few.

Yes, clap hands wipers is normal for a 1960 948cc Minor 1000.

It should also have trafficators and a pull start.

Yep it's got pull start as well, tho the trafficators ave been riveted shut, I'd love to get them working again, but think it may be a job too far!!
