1930-35 Isis Six
1933-35 Twenty-Five Six
Introduction
On sale from September 1929, the Isis Six was the
successor of the 1928-9 model Morris Six. The all steel body of the Isis
used panels produced by the Pressed Steel Co, Cowley, using
Budd dies. The same dies were used initially in the USA for
the 1928 Dodge Victory and in the UK for the 1929 Wolseley
Messenger. Power was provided by the same 17.9hp
engine as fitted to the preceding Morris Six. From 1932, a
re-designed body, with steel panels fitted to an ash frame,
was used.
From 1933 the Twenty Five was introduced alongside
the Isis. The Twenty Five used the same chassis and body
options as the Isis but was powered by a larger 25hp side
valve engine.
