The DVLA database shows it as having been manufactured in 1960:

Date of Liability 01 10 2007
Date of First Registration 15 08 1960
Year of Manufacture 1960
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 948cc
CO2 Emissions Not Available
Fuel Type PETROL
Export Marker N
Vehicle Status Unlicensed
Vehicle Colour BLACK
Vehicle Type Approval Not Available

If you think the DVLA records are incorrect you can get details of the exact build date by obtaining a Heritage Certificate. Details here:

As an approximate guide, Minors built in 1960 started from chassis no: 790007
