The third generation Victory hit the market in 1961 as the demand for large cars was steadily increasing. Also increasing at the time was the pressure of small and inexpensive European imports. That’s where the Victory 140 came in.
As the bare-bones base model of the Victory range, the 140 was powered by the same Dominion Four-Two that powered the original model in 1946, though updated for this new generation. An I4 base model allowed for a cruising economy over 20 MPG and a base price skirting into European import territory.
The design was forward thinking for the time, if rather unconvetional, but would become more mainstream with the facelift. A ‘unique’ aspect of it was that the 1961 Victory was the first Dominion to have its filler cap hidden behind a spring loaded licence plate holder.
