The Morris handbooks were known as AKD3922 in the sixties and one I have is marked 17th edition 1970 on the flyleaf. Earlier editions have the year in tiny print on the penultimate page, for example 2932 2/54 on my 1954 copy, the fifth edition.

They seem to have revised the book every year or two so if your car doesn’t already have one you can identify the right one for the year. There are plenty of them on ebay.

I’m not sure which edition it would be but the 1098cc engine came in late 1962 so a 1963 or 1964 book would be right for your car. Some of the ebay sellers list them by the year.
