"WELCOME TO THE MARCH issue of Minor Monthly, an issue that I have dedicated to one of the most popular variants of the Morris range, the Traveller. Over the next year we will see all variants of the Morris Minor get their own special issue but I thought it fitting to start the proceedings with what I feel is the most practical and visually pleasing model of all. No doubt there will be many of you that disagree as we all have our personal favorites but as Editor I thought I would have my choice first! As well as Traveller features, we also have advice on woodwork preservation and a company spotlight on one of the best Traveller specialists in the UK. Speaking of features I have included what I feel to be the number one modified Traveller ever built, Gary Beezer’s roof chopped and supercharged example, a truly stunning car.
