Thanks RtbAero8. It is all a pretty major deal the sale to be honest. My father was roaring around in the trike in November on the MTW (Morgan Three Wheeler) Holly run and then a month later was lying in a hospice with days to live.
The prospect of the trike going which defined his interests and passions all his adult life is a very sensitive issue for the family. That said, these posting are an unashamed exercise in getting as much for the trike as possible for my widowed mother. I've posted the details elsewhere and am getting some interest from the US. It would be lovely to see the car remain with the local MTW club scene, but as I say getting the most for it is our primary aim. Its looking like the 9th of August it will go on Ebay.
One of the members of the MTW club is coming over tonight so I can film it being started and driven. I will the post a link on this forum to Youtube were those interested can see it in action.
One tiny consolation is that my father also left a exceptional 1975 +8, rover four speed with 29,000 miles on the clock in BRG (Konies, camber plates, role bar, up rated oil pick-up and K&N's, stainless exhaust). I can't say I ever took any real notice of this car. Dad insured me on it twenty years ago and I’ve probably driven in twice in this time. However the last few months it’s clocked up a 200 hundred miles, including a pilgrimage to the factory. What pleasure there is driving one of these incredible machines, fighting the steering on tight bends, the blat from the exhaust as you floor it in third….sublime...WHAT A CAR! I have become a Morgan man at last. He would have approved. Jason
