Talk Morgan Forums Community Vehicle Talk (non-Morgan) Pur Sang Type 35

Thanks, Howard. Yes, I chipped in on your thread about a modern, reliable sports car that is tossable with room for a dog. Here, we don't recognize "titles" as such but of course in Austin a lot of money has come here in recent years- most have new baby Lambos or blinged out G Wagons and the occasional Rolls shooting brake- my sense is that they don't necessarily know or care about the history of the old marques-- I was an avid Bentley "special" hunter for a few years, did a fair amount of research and a few trips with my mechanic- one cross country (by air) to check out one potential prospect. In my 7th decade, I'm not looking for speed but that visceral experience-- and the Super 3 certainly provides that-- it has been at the shop getting a lot of accessories installed to my spec. I could never turn a wrench either, so always wrote the checks and here, the mechanics with skills are building old school American hot rods. They've never even heard of Morgan for the most part. I had the Ferraris and other fast cars several decades ago and don't really have the interest in speed or even like the vibe of many of the new ones at this point in life. And like you, while I expect to hang in there for a while, I am a pensioner living on my modest investments. I do know that I can "buy" a title, but apparently, "Master of Lunacy" is not for sale, having been retired from the ranks of nobility.
