Based on the Morris Eight Series E saloon (1938-48) which had heralded a major re-style with a waterfall shaped dummy grille, headlights in the wings and without running boards. The 918cc engine gave 29bhp, four speed transmission and 6 volt Lucas electrics.

 

The van version was rated at 5cwt. capacity. First produced in 1940 outliving the Saloon by five years until replaced by the Morris minor van. They sold in their thousands with the red GPO vans and green Telephone vans being the best customers.
