I'd love a Morris J-type, should I have the need for a small van.
Either that, or a Jowett Bradford

There are quite a few around still, so I wouldn't have thought it would be too bad.
The Morris 8 Series Z is also a very stylish looking van, but I have never seen one in the metal. |

The engine in the J is the sidevalve Morris MO saloon unit. Body and trim parts are very hard to find, although someone I know - who frequents the forum occasionally - is making some excellent repair panels for Js.
The JB had the B series engine, making it a bit more usable I think. There was also an Austin-badged version, called the 101, which sported a slightly different grille as the only difference (AFAIK).
