I asked Ian if he has the build number or chassis number, but he does not. Keeping that sort of information wasn't important to a young Parachute Regiment Officer.
He left Sandhurst in 1960.
He told me that the bumpers went as "not sporting" and in the end the screen went, replaced by Aero screens, but was put on hastily for that winter.
He claimed that the hood was used only 4 times in the 2.5 years he had it. A "proper" Morgan driver!
He also mentioned that in wet weather water came up between the floor boards...
Another mod was to the gearbox, the car had a remote shifter in what we would now call the "normal" position.
The car was Connaught Green, the colour in the photo shows the degradation of colour film over the years.
