Employing the between the wheels body and full length bed settee, the new 1950 Safetee's are ideal for those that seek a light weight caravan.

A 1950's brochure for the new Safetee Sports Minor for all light cars.

And here is a couple of photos of a "Sports Minor" that I took last year, with the only difference that I could see from the "Safetee Minor" being that the Sports model has more head room.
