Hillman Minx Series 1957

The new “Series” Minxes were completely re-designed for the 1957 model year. The car was designed by Raymond Loewy studios.

The Series III got a new grille, with the Hillman name placed above it. The IIIa grille was different (split) – the IIIb’s grille looked the same, but was made of aluminium. The IIIa got tiny fins at the rear. The IIb was also fitted with a Hypoid rear axle. The cars looked identical, so Rootes didn’t bother with a new brochure – they just changed a couple of words on the ‘specifications’ page.
