Morris Minor Light Commercial Vehicles appeared in May 1953, with the 803cc OHV A-Series engine, ‘cheesegrater’ grille and split windscreen, known as the Series II or O-Type.
Front doors were the shorter type from the four-door saloon. Painted front bumpers without overriders stopped short of the ends of the bumper valance, rather than the chromed wrap-around bumpers of the cars.
A plain chrome centre bonnet flash with a separate Morris badge below were fitted all LCVs, as on Minor MM saloons, rather than the projecting M badge of Series II and 1000 cars. Bonnet sides lacked the projecting side moulding and chrome badges of the car bonnet.
1954 saw a new horizontal bar
