New to Talk Morgan
newly restored 1960 +4, 4 str

I have spent about 4 years restoring this car. Rebuilt engine, repaired frame, some new sheet metal, much body work - well, you get the picture! Here are images to go along with the meagre description.

Nice job , I love the 1960s +4s having owned 3 of them over a 35 year period.

I see you have upgraded the dynamo to an alternator, which is very sensible.

I also note that you have left the drum brakes on the front rather than go for the disc conversion, (discs became an option in 1958/9, but I am not sure when they became standard). Was this for originality, or do just prefer drums?
