This Bob Harper creation still intrigues me and the price includes reversion to RHD apparently, he was a very clever talented chap. It's a 1975 chassis but has the 3.9Ltr power unit fitted from 1990 when it underwent the conversion. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/04/dhc.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/04/dhcc.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/04/dc.jpg)

I have seen a green Mog with a boot fitted by Bob Harper but never the DHC conversion. It does look good & different.

Very nice. However, a bit like Land Rovers there is a lack of driver's elbow room. Harpers did some interesting work on Morgans. (If Colin, Spanner Juggler, is reading this, that is the dealer's name neither of us could remember the other week when at Canons Ashby!  ).

I remember seeing it at one of the Mog meetings just after Bob completed it. The quality and finish was outstanding.

I agree - in this shot it looks ok but has a side exhaust fitted (maybe the flattened/grounded rear tailpipes tell a story) so not sure when that was or maybe they are using library pictures in the advert. These are off the Snobmog site. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/05/plus8dhc-f.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/05/plus8dhc-r.jpg)

This is arguably the definitive +8 coupe as built by MMC. Created for Jane Morgan. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/09/Mog-Fac-Oct-16_0275.jpg) Then re-built - notable for it's auto 'box. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/09/Mog-Fac-Oct-16_0274.jpg)
