The Minor Swallow Saloon in colour …

By December 10, 2023Headline News

It is thanks to Peter Brock‘s photo editing skills, that this colour rendition of the 1930 Swallow bodied Morris Minor saloon appears here. The photo was originally taken in the autumn of 1930 in Albany Street, London N.W. 1, not far from Swallow’s southern disributors (Henly’s  Ltd) main showroom on the corner of Euston Road. The car was first mentioned by the motoring press in a November 1930 edition of The Autocar with a further mention and a photograph in a February 1931 article in the same journal entitled, ‘Types of bodies’. No further information has been subsequently found and the car’s fate is therefore unknown. (LATplate Red 8916 courtesy of Motorsport Images)
