John`s thinking on age related issues with chassis, frame and general bodywork of Morgan 4/4`s in the Ford cross-flow era are no doubt well considered, thus as ever condition, condition and condition are the 3 most important primary issues, and considerably more so than mechanical issues when chassis or wood rot may present far more of an issue, though much depends upon the skills available to resolve any such issues...
I am more than grateful that my 86 +8 runs on carbs as opposed to later fuelling systems and the electrics are for the most part pretty straight forward, more so when I read that just to cancel a warning light on a dash required the replacement of an ECU, or that non operational brake lights was other than a first time fix at a Morgan dealership... But then my chosen forum I.D. perhaps provides a hint of my bias.. ? (-:
