Wing mirrors were always optional extra, not factory fitted.

Bonnet side strips (the raised mouldings) were standard fitting on all Minors except vans and pick-up.

The Morris Traveller had wing mirrors fitted from the factory as standard. These were made by Raydyot.

Little bit of history for you ! Raydyot was bought by BSR and merged with Styla Car Accessories . BSR was ( in its heyday ) the worlds largest manufacturer of record turntables ! Another company in the group was Eversure who made jacks . I still have ( and use ) an excellent jack and unique Eversure petrol can !!
