Morgan 4/4 series 1, 1947. Fully restored, finished late 2022 and MOT'd after the restoration. Done less than 300 miles since then. In common with many Morgan cars of that time, it was originally supplied to a specialist body builder as a running chassis. In this case it was to Motourists Ltd., Great North Road, London. This was common after the second world war and the coach builders would build a customized body which would account for the spare wheel being mounted in the same way as the early competition cars for the Le Mans and RAC Tourist Trophy races. The car was later exported to the USA but brought back to the UK in 2018. The original engine, a Standard Special, had been replaced by an early Standard Triumph engine and gearbox, also used on the Mk1 Triumph Spitfire (large valve head, higher compression ratio and appropriate camshaft) but with a single Solex carburettor. This has been rebuilt with new bearing shells, piston rings, valves, valve guides and springs, plus new clutch and rebuilt gearbox. The car has been completely dismantled and restored where necessary and the original chassis has been retained. All the front and rear suspension components including the axles and brakes, plus the steering, are all original as found on the car but have been carefully rebuilt. Where necessary the wooden framework has been repaired or replaced and chrome work restored. All the tyres are new. There was no sign that a hood had ever been fitted, but a hood has been made with side screens. There is also a simple tonneau to cover the whole cockpit when necessary. Over 600 photographs of the restoration and other information will be supplied on an SD card with the car. Contact 07817159428 for further information. North Yorkshire. Offers Considered.
