Saw a beautifully restored '56 Morgan 4/4 yesterday. Actually saw part of it. It was covered in the back corner of a high end restoration shop waiting for its interior. They did uncover the front and open the bonnet for me to see. The location was not good for photos but I did get one of the engine. It is a Ford 100E, identical to the one in my Prefect (see my avatar). Even has the same Solex carb, Ford 3 speed gearbox and master cylinders. Could not see the diff but final gearing may be different as top speed is advertised as 75 whereas the Prefect will almost make 60. Rumor is that the widow who owns it has spent probably double what it is worth on the restoration. But it was her husband's toy. Anyway, her is what I got.
