Hi All  and Art:  I too owned a Morgan for a few years.  1966 4 seater,  red
with black fenders and chrome wire wheels.  Always overheated when  driving
in the summer and leaked rain in the winter.  It was a  beautiful car but a
real pain in the A**.  Bob  Johnson


Hi Bob,
Now why would you take the Morgan out in the summer?  It's just too  hot for 
that.  And now why would you take the Morgan out in the  winter?  That's just 
too cold.  And it doesn't exactly have electronic  traction control for the 
snow.  So what's left?  It's a wonderful open  car for a cool summer's evening. 
Of course if it rains you had better plan on  spending ten minutes putting up 
the top--so plan ahead. The top really doesn't  leak---much.
So do I love driving it?  You bet.  I love being able to put my  fingers on 
the asphalt while sitting in the car.  I   love having  to lean over to the 
left when making a hard left turn--and then to the right  when turning right.  I 
thought I died and went to heaven when I bought that  car.  What I really want 
to find is a 1920 aviators leather helmet and  goggles to wear when I'm 
driving.
