Hi,

I am wondering if the 1959 Plus 4 I bought in October has the wrong side curtains-I can see no way to fit them.

These side screens have flexible windows that don't open. If they are not from a Morgan, I wonder what they do belong to?

Although it is perhaps difficult to tell from the picture, they do look very similar to the side curtains on my first +4 , which was a 1951 Flat Rad. I no longer have the car, so I can't do any further investigation.

However I don't see any way by which these could be mounted onto the 2 door brackets unless they are on the other side?

The fabric below the window pivoted outwards so you could put your arm out of the car and give hand signals (anyone remember them?)

They almost look like they're from a TR3. I don't see how those would fit on your car.

Thanks guys, my thoughts are confirmed. Time to start saving for a new pair. At least my tonneau cover is good!
