My first car. An early-60s Morris Minor. Picture taken in 1966. To my knowledge, it was one of the few MINIs in the U.S. Parts? Fuggetaboutit! Once drove 75+ miles with no brakes because I couldn't get a master cylinder. Shifting was pretty much a search-and-destroy mission. Remember, this MINI was much smaller than the new ones ... and in the 1960s, Detroit iron was much bigger. A certified death trap!
