The wheels are wrong,
the transmission tunnle is not out of a morgan,
the fuel filler cap is too high on the back panel,
the hood frame only has two hood sticks,
there are too many fixings on the side (should be 3 not 4) and back of the hood
the bonnet luvers are too long and they arn't spaced corrcetly or straight,
the door is too far forward into the scuttle panel.
the windscreen mounting brackets are wrong,
the wiper motor is wrong,
the bonnet catches are wrong,
the bulkhead is fabricated from sheets bolted together,
the rad is wrong,
the bonnet catches are missing at the front of the bonnet
the steering colum is wrong
as said before the dash and instruments are wrong.

And i'm really not sure about the earth strap from the manifold to the bulkhead !

As for the intior, well thats just plain nasty. rofl

Apart from the badges I don't think there is a single part of it that has been within 100 miles of Malvern.

5K + is a lot of money for a log book and a pile of scrap, god bless ebay.

I have e mailed the seller and he tells me that the car is on a Morgan chassis but that not only is the front suspension triumph herald but that the rear suspension is triumph too!! He says that he doesnt know anything about morgans but is being guided by the paperwork that came with the car. If i can get to see it i will take some snaps as im curious as to how it all fits together.

The sellar has now added an ammendment saying "that the car is built on a morgan chassis number B905, and that it is a mix of parts with the bonnet and cowl being morgan and all else being fibreglass replica parts. I hope somebody doesnt part with their hard earned money in the belief that they have bought a Morgan.
