The Huntingdon based Maddox coachbuilding business, in at least two differing quises, flourished throughout the twenties before running into difficulties in the early thirties, eventually ceasing to trade in early 1935. Their stand at the annual Olympia Motor Show featured Morris Minors on three occasions. Seen here is their exhibit at the October 1931 show. The rolling chassis upon which the firm’s four-seat tourer body sits is of a 1932 S.V. Morris Minor (EW 7273). Some of the features of this model were: All over dark grey paintwork, Dark blue leather upholstery and trim, Moseley ‘Float-on-air’ seat cushions, thick carpets, eight day clock on dash, Brooklands steering wheel, a fold flat windscreen and steeply cut-away doors. Full all-weather gear was also included. No price was mentioned in the 1931 Motor Show catalogue, but it was likely to have been around the £185 mark.
