Automobiles Can anyone help with this car?

[Jeff A]

While on vacation this month, we pulled into a small Grocery store and I parked next to this Morgan automobile. I was hoping that since this is a car built in the UK, Someone might be able to provide me with the exact model and the year. There are a couple of additional shots in my "Just Cars" Album. It's a new photo so near the end of that Album.

Issue with Morgans is that they built models then stopped then started again with them. This could be a Roaster or 4/4 or Plus 4 build up till the 1950s but most likely one of those build after 2008.

I know next to nothing about Morgans, but the starter handle hole in the front bumper suggests some age?

I actually hate Morgans, more because of the image than much else (Pipe smoking, flat cap and tweed wearing old duffers who look down on you), but I have to admire that they have stuck to their guns and still make them out of wood!
Anyway, this is most likely a late 60's model (68 on) going by the headlight array and a few other things.

They do go like stink though Kev. Goose excrement off a hot shovel, is the phrase I recall.

They do, but if you crash you die from splinters

"The Hamster" Hammond is big into Morgans IIRC?

Well, he's the only one of the original TG trio that would fit in one so...

 

[Jeff A]

Well, my guess from reading some articles with photos is that it could be a Morgan +4 from the 60's.

Interesting that this one is left hand drive.

I have always wondered if the leather strap holding the bonnet down was fitted in the factory, or was just a very popular aftermarket accessory.

Aftermarket, but most owners have one
