1966 Morgan 4/4
***Vendor supplied images***
Highlights
- In previous ownership for forty years
- Restored and sympathetically upgraded in order to make it supremely usable

- Rich history which includes participating in various long-distance rallies
The Appeal
For those well and truly smitten with classic motoring, a Morgan has a great deal to offer. Their handbuilt cars proved a popular sporting choice pre-war, and it’s fair to say they were so pleased with the winning formula that they carried on for decades afterwards. To this day, Morgan continue to bring together vintage styling with the modern drivetrains.
This 1966 4/4 looks every bit like it was built three decades earlier, and yet under the bonnet, we find Triumph’s 2138 cc inline-four taken from the TR4. Moreover, this particular 4/4 has been subject to a great deal of mechanical engancement over the forty years of previous ownership and therefore is amongst the most thoroughly sorted examples you’re likely to find. Presented in lovely restored condition, it’s a great opportunity that’s not to be missed.
