I understand that totally and I feel exactly the same about my 26 year old Plus 8 - I keep the one shot and everything on the car is as it was when it was delivered to it's first owner as that is important to me. Other than new rear wheel cylinders linings and front pads all done at home, an agent would find loads to replace as they need to to survive it's just the way it is..
A Morgan of any sort is very special and rare in real terms and that's why a run out is always a pleasurable adventure to share with the general public too they smile and chat.
That 7k for a clutch change on an Aero was a good example of the rip off..
