Yes it is a Hillman Minx, approximately late 50's model, registered in Massachusetts. I owned a '51 convertible, a '56 Husky, '54 and '61 convertibles and a '61 Sedan. All used, from $75 to $900, and very easy to keep going at low cost.

 

These are video screen captures of Fred Herzog pictures. Can't find any other versions of these online.
