Hillman Husky

Automobiles

The Hillman Husky was a line of British passenger vehicles made by Hillman between 1954 and 1970. The first Husky of 1954 was a small two-door estate car based on the Hillman Minx Mark VIII, with a single side-hinged rear door, a floor-mounted gear lever and the older 1,265 cc sidevalve engine; 42,000 were sold before it was replaced in 1958. The Series I of 1958 was based on the new Audax Minx with a 1,390 cc overhead valve engine de-rated to 51 hp, and Commer sold a panel van version of the same vehicle as the Commer Cob. The last Husky was built in 1970, when Chrysler Europe, the new owners of Rootes, rationalised their products.
