HILLMAN HUSKY (1954-57)

Estate car.

Best described as a sawn-off austerity-specification van with seats and windows, and only just over 12ft long. Low gearing means brisk traffic pick-up even on 35bhp, but handling ghastly. More economical than most Minxes, but rust has decimated their ranks. Also made as Commer Cob delivery van.
