The first Hillman Husky, introduced in 1954, was a small estate car based on the contemporary 'Mk. VIII' Hillman Minx. The two-door Husky entered the range alongside an existing Minx estate car, which had a nine-inch longer wheelbase. The Husky was not a hatchback, having instead a single side-hinged rear door. Very little is known about this example, it presents well bodily, with signs of some restoration to areas around the wings. The vehicle starts and runs, seemingly without issue and the gears engage as they should. The interior is original, and has signs of wear commensurate with the age, and being leather cloth, has become brittle over the years. It is offered here with a V5C.
