The car has 4 mag wheels, ventilated disc brakes, exhaust headers and boasts it's original matching #'s engine, rear end & transmission. Please note that the car will need a canvas top for it's soft top frame to complete the soft top but does still have its original side curtains, full weather tonneau cover and spare wheel.The Morgan Motor Company is a British motor car manufacturer that was founded in 1910 by Henry Frederick Stanley Morgan and based in Malvern Link, an area of Malvern, Worcestershire. Morgan originally made it's name building three wheel tricycles and did not make it's first four wheeled sports car until 1936 and Morgan cars still today produce some 850 cars per year, all assembled by hand, still in the same fashion of the original 1930's British sports car! The waiting list for a car is approximately six months, and has sometimes been as long as ten years. The bodystyle has changed little for decades. H.F.S. Morgan quit the Great Western Railway in 1904 and co-founded a motor sales and servicing garage in Malvern Link.In 1909 he designed and built a car for his own use. Previously he developed the first independent front suspension in the engineering shop of Malvern College. He began production a year later and the company prospered. Production of his legendary three wheelers approached 1000 by WW1 and quickly resumed with both racing and touring models. Morgan's first four wheeler came in 1936 with three wheelers eventually phased out in 1952. Morgan continued to run the company until he died at age 77 in 1959. Peter Morgan, son of HFS, ran the company until a few years before his death in 2003 when he was replaced as chairman by Alan Garnett, a non-family director, from 2003 to 2006. After Garnett's resignation, a four-man management team was set up. Charles Morgan (son of Peter), helped made up the new management team, and in 2010 was named managing director. In January, 2013, Morgan was removed as managing director, replaced by another director, but continued as strategy director until October 2013 when he was then removed both as an employee and member of the board of directors. This marked the end of over 100 years of Morgan family ownership.Morgan cars are unusual because wood has been used in their construction for a century, and is still used in the 21st century for framing the body shell. A visitor center and museum in Malvern, England have exhibits about the company's history from Edwardian times until the present day, developments in automobile technology, and a display of automobiles. There are also guided tours of the factory. Those who jest that Morgan automobiles have evolved at the same rate as the first fish that crawled out of the sea have never taken the time to study the iconic Plus 4. Not only did this model experience a number of notable visible changes in its 19 years of production, it used variants of five engines, each improving performance still further. The Plus 4 was Morgans premium sports car until being supplanted by the hot rod Plus 8, and thanks to its simple construction, excellent restoration parts supply and devoted enthusiast following, it remains one of the most highly sought models in this English firms 103-year history. Whilst its true that while the Plus 4 that debuted at the fall 1950 Earls Court Motor Show didnt look much different from Morgans supplanted pre-war 4/4 which it replaced but the new model featured a number of improvements. The Plus in this models name signified its significant power boost, courtesy of the 2,088cc, 68hp Standard Vanguard four-cylinder engine that replaced the 1,267cc, 38.8hp Standard Special unit behind the traditional flat radiator. Other pluses included a longer bonnet, taller radiator and a wider seat that offered additional legroom. Morgans famous patented sliding pillar front suspension could now be lubricated with oil at the push of a button with the One Shot Chassis Lubrication System. Plus 4s used four-cylinder engines from Standard-Triumph, and all share excellent upgrade potential and a virtually unlimited parts supply. The elemental two-seat roadster was the first Plus 4 variant to reach buyers, while a similar four-seat roadster and luxurious two-seat Drophead Coup followed. Setting the two-seat Drophead apart from its low-door roadster siblings were its fixed, wood-framed windshield and taller doors with detachable metal-framed sliding windows. This models distinctively shaped rear deck held two spare wheels, and its three-position top could be partially opened to expose the seats.The cut-away front fenders, free-standing headlamps and flat-profile radiator grille that defined the Flat Rad models was joined, in late 1953, by a face-lifted Plus 4 that enthusiasts call the Interim Cowl model. This car, of which just 19 were built, sported low-set headlamps incorporated into the front valance and a partially integrated flat grille. The High Cowl model that followed in 1954 sported what we now consider the Morgan face, a fully integrated, curved waterfall radiator grille with high-set headlamps integrated into teardrop-shaped valance pods. It was in this period that the traditional trafficator indicators could be optionally replaced by flashing units, and a rare four-seat Drophead Coup was introduced, a car that earned the humorous nickname, Snob Mog. Morgan benefited from the TR sports car range that Standard-Triumph was developing, as the Interim Cowl and High Cowl Plus 4 roadsters could optionally be fitted with the TR2 engine.
