GM body number series

Post by woodypup59 »

A mate has a 1964 woody estate with the body number GM 081638 on the slam panel.

Does the GM mean anything ?

Someone posted the a similar query on the Mk1 FB page, gave no real answer there as to the GM. That was a Morris Traveller.

Thought the prefix was CM?

Pretty sure its "CM" on my 65/66 Traveller..

That photo looks like its embossed from behind whereas mine is stamped from the front.... with the same font and size lettering as my 63S.

Cheers, Ian
