From time to time I've noticed members of this forum swapping out - or considering swapping out - their Morgan for some other classic. This got me thinking. If you were to swap out your Morgan for another classic what would you be looking to get? Or if, like me, you expect your Morgan may be your only foray into classic car ownership what other classics do you feel you would have liked to have had and have missed out on? The ones that I expect I will never get, but would have liked are: Lancia Fulvia 1.6HF Alfa Spyder Original Mini Cooper. E-type (I wish  )

There was an outfit in South Bromley , called Costello who used to produce V8 conversions for the MGB. 1970 does seems to be a bit early for them. Their first conversion was a one-off in 1971.

I think if I were not to have a Morgan, I'd be after either an MGB LE50 or a Mark2 Jaguar.
